StudioLab Aadjan van der Helm (TU Delft) aesthetic appeal, product experience, intelligence in products, inspiration engineering, emotional design, design for the senses, industrial design, students, research, group of designer, TU Delft, ergonomics-driven, technology-driven, working prototypes
The Studio lab aims at integrating multidisciplinary knowledge on user, technology, and the product usage context. Building working prototypes that are rich in experiential quality and design tools is essential to the research approach. Prototypes with design variables are tested in real environments, in an iterative research through design cycle. Results from user experience testing leads to design knowledge and refinement of research issues.

Techno Textiles 1-2 Sarah Braddock '98-'05 book, smart textiles, natural fibers, science, design, engineering, fashion, materials, microfibers
This exuberant collection celebrates the way in which astonishing new textile technology is bringing together fashion, design, engineering, and science. Synthetics are now much more than cheap substitutes for natural fibers: they feel good, perform well, and look out of this world--literally. Smart textiles are no longer a science-fiction fantasy; here are self-cleaning carpets and anti-insomniac microfibers.
The Edward S. Rogers SR. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (University of Toronto) university, school, diy, electrical engineering
We offer undergraduate programs in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. Our teaching laboratories provide unique hands-on opportunities to build things and we teach engineering from the "you-must-do-it-yourself" perspective. In addition, our faculty members are engaged in cutting-edge research and we offer opportunities for graduate student training that are among the best in the world. With over 70 professors and 400 graduate students, this department is practically "buzzing" with innovative research ideas and projects. This, in turn, benefits our undergraduate program, enriching the course content and providing valuable research experiences for our eager undergrads.
