The iF Design award 2017 goes to …
The iF Industrie Forum Design e . V . represents the oldest independent design institution in the world . The annual iF Design awards honor products from various branches . An international expert committee evaluates product ’ s design excellence based on criteria like usability , innovation , or spatial concept . Out of 5500 submissions in 2017 , the IDS3010 was certified in the category “ industry / skilled trades ”.
IDS3010
• Safety
• Practicability
• Ergonomics
• Spatial concept
• Production efficiency
• Use value and usability
• Degree of innovation
Elaborated Spatial Concept
One challenge in the design of the IDS3010 was the compact size in combination with a highest level of functionalities . While other laser interferometers exceed the size of the IDS3010 by ten times or more , the compact design enables the IDS3010 for machine integration or space-limited applications . Since the sensor heads get along without electronic components , they have lower spatial requirements and they are more robust against harsh environments .
Usability emphasizes outstanding functionality
The iF Design award indicates outstanding functionality coming along with a highest level of aesthetics and design quality . While the passive cooling fulfills an essential function of the devices , it also serves as a design element supporting the aesthetic appearance and usability of the product . The IDS combines highest technology and ease of use in one device . attoSENSORICS
