EHV INNOVATION CAFÉ 

17:30 – 17:45 pm Walk in
17:45 – 19:15 pm Interactive talk by MAD Emergent Art Center
19:15 – 20:00 pm Drinks

Our world is getting more digital. And everywhere around us we can find art and technology getting closer to each other or even merging. Just like Augmented Reality options in public space as art. How can art be manifested in future public space? How will art evolve? How will technology evolve? What will the impact be on the experience of our surroundings?

Art & Science Salon is a public panel discussion between an artist and scientist accompanied by a moderator. For this edition, AR artist Tamiko Thiel and Associate Professor TU/e Mathias Funk will meet to talk about the topic Augmented Reality Art in Public Space. Our moderator for this event is Carmin Karasic, digital artist and teacher.

Tamiko Thiel is a visual artist exploring the interplay of place, space, the body and cultural identity. She works in a variety of media ranging from supercomputers to digital prints and videos to interactive 3d virtual reality worlds and augmented and mixed reality artworks and installations.

Mathias Funk is Associate Professor in the Future Everyday group of the department of Industrial Design. He leads the Things Ecology lab. In addition, he is the co-founder of UXsuite GmbH, a high-tech spin-off of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).

Carmin Karasic is a digital artist and teacher. Besides that she works for ASML.

This edition is made possible by MAD emergent art center.

EHV INNOVATION CAFÉ 

17:30 – 17:45 pm Walk in
17:45 – 18:15 pm Interactive talk by iGem
18:15 – 19:30 pm Drinks

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the intestine. About 2 million Europeans suffer from IBD with thousands of new cases every year. Diagnosis of IBD goes via different medical procedures; biochemical, radiologic, histologic and endoscopic. Endoscopy is the most invasive of these procedures and therefore, the most unpleasant. Unfortunately, this technique is necessary to establish a diagnosis for IBD. Team iGEM Eindhoven 2021 would like to make the current diagnostic procedure more pleasant, by making it non-invasive. Luke Rossen of the TU/e iGEM team elaborates.

The iGEM competition was organized for the first time in 2003 by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The aim was to encourage students to try to solve real-world problems using genetically engineered organisms. It has grown enormously over the years and is now the largest synthetic biology competition, with more than 360 teams participating from all over the world yearly. 

Luke Rossen is a Biomedical Engineering master’s student specializing in Chemical Biology at the Eindhoven University of Technology. He has always been passionate about all things biological, chemical and physical. Knowing exactly how everything around us works, and how we can manipulate it to our advantage is something that keeps him busy on a daily basis. He joined the iGEM competition as a chance to apply his knowledge and interest, develop himself, and potentially make his first real contribution to science.

EHV INNOVATION CAFÉ 

17:45 – 18:15 pm Talk by Frans van de Vosse (Artificial Womb)

18:15 – 18:45 pm Q&A via Zoom

Researchers of TU/e and partners aim to develop an artificial womb, which is an adequate substitute for the protective environment of the maternal womb in case of premature birth, preventing health complications. The artificial womb and placenta will provide a natural environment for the baby with the goal to ease the transition to newborn life. The perinatal life support (PLS) system will be developed using breakthrough technology: a manikin will mimic the infant during testing and training, advanced monitoring and computational modeling will provide clinical guidance.

Frans van de Vosse is the project coordinator and professor of Cardiovascular Biomechanics at the department of Biomedical Engineering at TU/e.

EHV INNOVATION CAFÉ 

17:45 – 18:15 pm Talk by Margriet van Schijndel

18:15 – 18:45 pm Q&A via Zoom

The EAISI Mobility Lab is a joint program of NXP and TU/e and is also an ICAI Lab. ICAI is a Dutch network aimed at technology and talent development between knowledge institutes, industry, and government in the area of artificial intelligence.It aims to advance perception technology such that mobile systems become able to understand – and not merely sense – the environment that they operate in. Understanding is the basis for hypothesizing and anticipating on possible future events and thus the basis for planning safe and effective actions.

Margriet van Schijndel – de Nooij is the program manager at EAISI: “I firmly believe that artificial intelligence can boost safety and energy efficiency of vehicles, but also of our overall mobility system. To establish this, close collaboration with industrial partners like NXP is crucial. Being part of the ICAI network helps us to maximize the impact of our innovations.”

18:15 – 18:45 pm Q&A via Zoom

CASA 1.0 is a comfortable, affordable and sustainable alternative for Dutch social housing. It was developed by Team CASA, a student team of the Eindhoven University of Technology, together with many partners and sponsors. The goal: integrating new and existing sustainable HVAC and building techniques into a single housing concept, the CASA 1.0.

By the end of June/beginning of July, the building of the pilot CASA 1.0 will have finished in Brainport Smart District. The development was a unique process, involving around 100 students and 75 companies over a 5-year period. In this talk, Team CASA would like to share some of the insights from this long, arduous but very rewarding process!

Antoine Post has a BSc. in both International Business Administration and a BSc. in Applied Physics, Antoine has a strong background in both engineering and strategic business administration. He is currently enrolled in a double MSc. program in Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering. In addition, he is founder and chair of Foundation Team CASA, a team of over 20 international students working on sustainable housing in the Netherlands.

SUMMER BREAK

EHV Innovation Café will have a short summer break.

17:45 – 18:15 pm Talk by Sil van der Woerd (Birthplace)

18:15 – 18:45 pm Q&A via Zoom

Studio Birthplace dedicates itself to tell the pressing stories of our time, to create awareness and inspire change. Animals, humans and nature are struggling to survive all over the world as we experience a critical climate emergency, massive inequity and a sixth mass extinction. The challenges we face are overwhelming and complicated, but we must face them. As artists and as humans, Studio Birthplace believes that shining a light on these topics is our responsibility. Together we will tell the stories of those who can’t tell their own and work towards a sustainable future for this planet we call home, our Birthplace.

EHV INNOVATION CAFÉ 

17:45 – 18:15 pm Talk by Marco Arts (Carbyon)

18:15 – 18:45 pm Q&A via Zoom

Carbon is a vital component of every life form on our planet. It is currently emitted as a “waste” product in the form of CO₂ and is one of our principle climate change agents. By harvesting the free carbon reserve that is present in air, a material abundance for countless everyday products is yielded. Closing the CO₂ cycle in this way will fundamentally transform and neutralize the climate effects of our global energy and materials economy.

Carbyon is developing a technology to capture CO₂ from ambient air. This allows the energy industry to produce 100% circular and renewable fuels from renewable electricity. Carbyon’s unique solution enables the renewable energy sector: making fuels from water and air in a closed loop powered by renewable electricity. COO Marco Arts explains the concept.

EHV INNOVATION CAFÉ 

17:45 – 18:15 pm Talk by Studio PMS

18:15 – 18:45 pm Q&A via Zoom

Studio PMS is a Utrecht fashion collective. We are continuously looking for innovative and sustainable ways to communicate fashion. We strive for an industry that is less hierarchical, conservative and passive to its audience. Our name refers to the medical condition known as premenstrual syndrome which is in line with our design philosophy.

The widely known uncertainty around the medical causes of PMS applies directly to our concept: it offers us the freedom to experiment with the many mediums suitable to our concept. We have therefore embraced interdisciplinarity as a design principle. We like to start up interdisciplinary projects and collaborations using 3D modeling, virtual reality, animations and augmented reality. By linking our qualities and creating affiliates, we achieve surprising outcomes and innovative results. By the means of this we stand for a progressive revolution.
