Because of its broad range of contacts with companies and institutions in Europe and beyond (Singapore, Australia, the United States), Industrial Design is well-equiped to respond to international developments in a pro-active manner.
Unravel @ siggraph 2006 tech, wearable, exhibition, show, fashion
Unravel: the SIGGRAPH2006 Fashion Show presents a runway show of innovative and experimental works in computational and conceptual couture, fashion with a social agenda, science-inspired form, and new technologies of material fabrication. Unravel brings together the work of designers and artists from the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia who are seeking to redefine the notion of ‘wearable.’ In the increasingly mobile nature of contemporary life, it has become important to contemplate how the devices we carry and the garments we wear converge into a ‘secondary skin’ which function as an extension of ourselves, in both ability and perception. By using fashion, a medium which has always been associated with self-expression and personal identity, these designers seek to demonstrate how the use (or misuse) of technology and its modes of production have the power to stimulate, delight, and inspire in ways as yet untapped in the fashion world. Gone are the stereotypical bulky cyborg devices; what emerged are garments of beauty, subtlety and elegance in form. Some bring to light important social issues — redefining our notions of personal space, networked environments, and issues of privacy and protection. Others relish in pure delight, reminding us how technology also has the power to enhance our personal relationships and celebrate fantasy and play as part of the human condition.

Varitex (Varitex) company, smart materials, medical equipment, research
Van oudsher is Varitex nauw verbonden met de flebologie. Zo werd de eerste Varitex maatkous ontwikkeld voor de praktijk van pionier H.R. van de Molen. Varitex heeft altijd een actief en stimulerend beleid gevoerd ten aanzien van wetenschappelijk onderzoek en de publicatie daarvan. Vanaf de oprichting onderkende Varitex dat productie van elastische kousen samen moet gaan met de ontwikkeling van de compressietherapie. Zo werden de eerste drukmetingen al in 1958 met behulp van TNO apparatuur bij Varitex verricht. Deze metingen zouden de basis leggen voor de officiële indeling in de klassen 1 tot 4. Momenteel levert Varitex zelf aangepaste apparatuur voor drukmeting aan TNO en fabrikanten van elastische kousen. Vanuit deze taakopvatting en de ontwikkelde kennis op het gebied van compressietherapie, is Varitex nauw betrokken bij de nationale en internationale ontwikkelingen op het gebied van regelgeving en standaardisering. Vanzelfsprekend is een goede compressietherapie afhankelijk van het juist instellen en uitvoeren van die behandeling. Daarom beschouwt Varitex het instrueren en opleiden van ieder die bij de behandeling betrokken is, als een essentieel onderdeel van haar taak.
