Vehicle concept design

2014: At the TU Delft I created this concept for the course called Advanced Concept Design. The goal was to create a novel concept containing lots of innovation. The assignment was done for a small startup which aimed at inspiring people about the transportation of the future. I created an all-electric inflatable urban vehicle. Looking back, I think this was a weird project. At least I was able to experiment with Adobe After effects because for the final presentation, a 2 minute video was required.

Makita drill concept

2014: I converted a 2D drawing into a 'functional' but conceptual 3D Cad model. This was an assignment for an elective at the TU Delft to learn more advanced modeling and analysis techniques in SolidWorks. I learned how to take a sketch as accurate as possible into a complex 3D model, and I tried to make the product as realistically as possible. At the TU Delft, most courses are either very conceptual or theoretical, and you're not being trained to create products that can be manufactured. This project reflects the level of engineering knowledge about injection molding I had back then when I was studying already for 5 years in Delft. There was a lot of practical knowledge missing :)

In-place printed planetary gearbox

2013: For a elective course about prototyping at the TU Delft, I created an inner wheel with a planetary gear system. After washing out the support material and inserting a toy motor, it could rotate immediately without need for extra assembly. The aim of the course was to discover freeform modeling in Rhinoceros and pushing the limits of 3D printing.
