Nova is a personal climbing wall that redefines bouldering training at home, making it a celebrated activity through a new take on design expression and a compelling interactive interface. Instead of colored holds usually found on regular training walls, Nova uses light to flexibly indicate a variety of climbing routes and difficulty levels. Users can select a route using their iPhone. Information about the training performance is used to offer personalized training. Nova is practical smart gear for climbing and offers various routes for training. When not in use the climbing wall makes use of lighting to create a modern ambience. Thus the design took into consideration two possible scenarios: training and ambient lighting while not in use. The wall consists of panels with pattern-cut-outs that can be scaled to fit different sizes of rooms and dedicated walls. The new experience proudly reflects the user's passion for their sport and lifestyle.

Gundulas Stories is an interactive learning environment that enables children to acquire knowledge playfully and improve their sensory and motor skills. The concept combines classic "storytelling" with new technologies. The teacher reads a story that is visualized by a projection. During the story, the children are encouraged to participate and interact physically and linguistically with their movement and language. The main character of these "learning stories" is a tortoise named Gundula. She is an object made of wood which is brought to life by the projection. To read the story and to control the interactions an iPad app was developed. Using the app the teacher can make each and every reading an individual experience while retaining control over the running time of the story. Based on established teaching practices like reading aloud, it's easy to integrate the learning environment into an existing curriculum and does not restrict the educator. By activating all the senses Gundulas Stories provide a holistic learning experience for both children and educators.
