\n\t\n\tThe iDP Project Showcase 2023 highlights the work by this year’s graduating students in the Innovation & Design Programme. Their projects span various themes such as healthcare, mobility, sustainable cities, smart living, intelligent systems, and immersive reality. Some of our students who were pursuing commercialisation of their project ideas through our Ideas to Start-up final year project course also pitched their start-up ideas during the showcase.<\/p>\n
Find out more about the projects shown at this showcase, watch the project pitches by our student start-up teams, and see live demonstrations of their prototypes!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t![\"youtube-video-thumbnail\"](\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/P9AGcLn0TOg\/maxresdefault.jpg\")

This would not only serve as a proof of concept for DNA as a next generation data storage medium; but would also serve useful applications for molecular recording and living biosensors.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t In this project, we designed a pre-crawler device that is used by infants with Cerebral Palsy to conduct crawling training at home and in clinical settings.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to address the high costs and complexity involved in T-cell manufacturing by designing a modular and automated bioreactor that integrates multiple process of the manufacturing process and produces CAR-T cells of high quality and quantity.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t In this project, we designed a non-intrusive illumination solution for vitrectomy to reduce surgical trauma and surgical difficulty.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to improve the low-speed flight characteristics of Blended Wing Body aircraft, a highly efficient aircraft concept, by the use of Distributed Electric Propulsion (multiple motors mounted on the wing).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to address the problem of limited electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure by designing an EV portable charger, allowing for convenient charging anywhere, anytime.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t We aim to connect the fragmented smart device market.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to better understand the mechanical properties of 3D printed carbon-fiber reinforced plastic materials and the impact of printing parameters, to optimize material strength, weight, and cost, and also build a reliable finite element analysis-based model for practical applications.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t Transforming the way we decorate our homes with plants.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t OnSight is a construction task management software that helps teams on the construction site streamline their task management, minimise miscommunications and ultimately improve the productivity of the work site.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to provide a standard set of criteria on testing methods for floating PV models, as currently there is no set of testing methods tailored specifically for floating PV modules.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to predict and reduce discomfort experienced by passengers travelling in long haul flights by implementing an innovative machine learning model and a smart pneumatic-based seat cushion.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t In this project, we designed a small form factor, integrated urban farming system with automated plant care and a user-friendly app to empower home growers to produce bountiful yields of high-quality produce with minimal effort and cost.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t Hotels contribute high carbon emissions, hindering their sustainability goals and Cityscape Farms’ automated growing system offers on-site food production with a farm-to-fork concept helping hotels reduce carbon emissions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project aims to lower the contamination rate within PET bottle recycling bins from 27% to 5% by introducing a smart bin that helps to passively educate users to recycle PET bottles correctly and actively sorts out waste within the smart bin.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t In this project, we have developed a smart dustbin that utilises an innovative compacting unit, sensors, and IoT to enhance the efficiency of waste management through live updates of the bin’s status. We also provide added value to all stakeholders, surpassing the capabilities of existing solutions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t Turning sugarcane waste into affordable wearable fibers.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project explores the design of a sustainable datalogger to reduce waste generated by disposable dataloggers are extensively used in the refrigerated supply chain industry.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t In this project, we designed a micro hydro-turbine for a power generation company to harvest clean energy from discharge water canals as a means to reduce the increase in carbon tax from 2025 onwards.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t Borderless is an immersive experience that enables people from different physical spaces to seemingly exist on the same plane, allowing strangers to self-reflect and forge social connections to boost well-being.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t This project creates a virtual reality experience that offers an intimate walkthrough of Ng Eng Teng’s former residence with thematically curated art pieces in his basement.
