Introduction
AboutI am very enthusiastic about my work and am a passionate and persistent designer. I enjoy working as a team and am comfortable being the leader of the team as well as a contributing member. I have worked on design exhibitions and have won several awards for my design.
As a designer, it is my vision to always be bringing new possibilities to daily life. I do this by working to understand users and their behaviors as well as their needs, physically and phsychologically.
I believe function and ethics can, and should be, intergrated into the design of any product. I enthusiastically search for ways to continuously improve myself in order to become a more sophisticated designer.

Team work was an important part of this project. I was resposible for the exterior design and 3D rendering of this project. Communication among team members was particularly important in this project.
Our team presented our project in the “Young Desingers’ Exhibition,” which is an annual design exhibition in Taiwan. By inter-acting with different visitors, we learned a lot from various points of view about our work.
FUN SHADOWI C T T o y D e s i g n C o n t e s t

Stress
Modern and Urban life brings us stress. We need a simple way to release our stress without influencing our daily jobs.
Shadow
We probably had the same experience in our child-hood. When our mothers turned off the lights at bedtime, we hid under our bedquilt and used flash lights to continue our ad-venture. We used to have many imaginations about shadows. I think the pure happiness behind these memories still can bring smiles to adults.

Turn on the “Fun shadow” and a pet’s shadow willbe projected on awall.
You can use the shadow of your hands to interactwith the pet.
If you make a fast movement, you can hit the pet.
Use your hands to create various kinds of shadows.This pet will have different reactions to the shadows of your gesture.

Page 15
MarketFun Shadow is designed for 16~30 year old people. They have routine jobs and are passionate about on their work. When they become too tired to focus, they can just take a break and play with the pet project Fun Shadow. It doesn’t take too much time. They can interact with the Pet; then go back to work with a relaxing smile.

Two concepts for SWAROVSKI Design Contest
Problem
PendantMy concept is simple. Users can elegantly let earphones be a beautiful pendant hanging on the neck when users need to focus on other things rather than the music from the ear-phones. I created two concepts based on this idea.
We all like to have music around us so we are used to wearing earphones everwhere; however, when we have to take them off, the long wire seems to be really annoying.
Page 18
Page 19
MagnetWhen users don’t need the earphones, they can be attatched together by magnet placed in the bottom of the earphones. Then, users just let the earphones hang around their necks as a pendant.
EarphonesIt is also an elegant earphone which looks like ear pendants.

Transparent & Flexible Plastic
The base is made of flexible plastic which can firmly hold the earphones and gems, yet earphones still can be removed easily when users need them.

GestureThere is no buttons for dialing. The most intuitive methods are used. A simple gesture can call a friend.
Page 24
UsageUsers can gesture differently to control this cell phone. I hope this is able to give users a warm experience while using technology.
Page 25
GESTUREGesture is the most simple and natural method of communicat-ing. If we gesture to control a cell phone, the experience of using technology can contain more humanity and emotion. A cell phone can be more than a cold machine.

Online clothes shopping is a daily routine for some people. With online shopping it is hard to imagine what the clothes will look like when the shopper actually wears them. Shoppers often buy from many different brands and it takes a lot of time and effort to eventually find everything a shopper wants.This online clothes shopping applicatioin integrates different brands, combining items and simulating the look the user is trying to achieve. Users can save the images and share online for feedback from friends before making the final purchases.

P.O.S.Design for impaired drivers
A 3-level system that detects, pre-vents and protects drivers from traffic accidents caused during bad physical conditions.
GREEN STATUS/NORMAL MODE
Page 49
YELLOW STATUS/SECURITY MODE
ACTIVE conditions leading to mode change
If the system mistakes normal conditions for a secure status, the driver can utilize the ITS system to return to normal mode.
Three components of the system are running:1. An eye tracking camera is used to follow the movements of the driver’s eyes.2. Pressure sensors around the steering wheel records the tension changes in driver’s hands.3. Alcohol sensors inside the steering wheel detects driver’s BAC level.According to the data collected by these components, the system will decide if the other mode needs to be activated. By researching the different situations of impaired drivers, we find that when they are in troublethey are more likely to close their eyes or take their hands off the steering wheel. Both these actions can be detected by the system and processed properly. Even if their illness is not detected by the system, they can always use the mode-switch button on the steering wheel to ask the vehicle for help.

RED STATUS/SECURITY MODE
Under Secure Mode (YELLOW STATUS)First of all, a notification window will show up on the screen with a continuous alarm to remind driver the mode is changed, also works as a wake up call to the sleepy or passed-out driver.
Besides the already-running components, more modules start to function:1. Electronic speed limit brakes gently to maintain current speed limits, also prevented unnecessary sudden braking.2. An external camera is back online to monitor both the driving lane and traffic signals. It helps the driver keep on the proper lane with out breaking traffic rules.3. Anti-collision radars around the vehicle updates the real-time envi ronment status to the driving computer to avoid potential accidents.4. Navigation system will search nearby POI and provide suggestions for rest or medical care by voice.5. Three seconds before red mode is launched, an alert is sounded to inform the driver the car is going to start emergency mode(Red Status).
Under Secure Mode (YELLOW STATUS)
RED STATUS/EMERGENCY MODE
After a long drive, Sam feels worse than before. He suddenly experienc-es a terrible headache before he loses his consciouness. The system detects emergency condition and converts to red status. the car automatically pull over graduatly and safely.The systemcalls 911.
Page 53
Under Emergency Mode (RED STATUS)
With the system being fully func-tional, the driving computer will take over the control of the car and performs a safe road side stop by following these steps:
1. Thanks to the advanced camera and sensors, the car will try to pull over.2. After step 1, the car will turn on the AC or heater for maintaining temperature. The system will shut clown the engine and open the window a bit to creare a relatively safe and comfortable environment.3. Though unconscious, the system will still inform the dricer of all procedures to try and assist him.

CONSTUCTION
POLYSTYRENE We used POLYSTYRENE cubes as platforms to display our work and built the wooden wall to support cubes and to surround our site.
RecyclingWhen this exhibition was finished, we paid a recycling company to recycle all Polystyrene.
Page 59
Detail
The sizes of Polystyrene cubes were accurately measured before they were cut in the factory; then we delivered all cubes to the exhibition. Thou-sands of cubes were individu-ally assembled according to the blueprint we designed.
The words of the sign below were segmented by the ma-chine based on the blueprint drawn by AutoCAD before the words were connected to each other.
