Design and production of a vehicle counting system nanoZEC SPIE Belgium
SPIE Belgium*


2021 - Present

The M6100 ("NanoZEC") is a (up to 32 lane) vehicle counting system in a 19-inch 1U casing. It interfaces with SIAT detection cards and can calculate the number of vehicles, speeds, lengths,... for every lane indivually. The system has several RS232 ports and ethernet connectivity for configuration as well as for reading out the calculated results. 

 

Regardless of its current application, the device is designed as a universal 19-inch 1U embedded computer with a basic user interfae that can be configured as desired and can communicate with up to 6 channels at the same time trough various interfaces (ethernet, RS232, RS485, ...) and protocols. A built-in battery management system allows (temporary) operation on an externally connectable battery.

(Partial) Development of a powerful and flexible video wall control system for Glassiled Motion glasses

2018 - 2019

Glassiled Motion is a dynamic glass product by AGC. It consists of architectural glasses with LEDs mounted in a fixed array. The LEDs are individually controllable & dimmable. Doing so, animations can be played on the glass. When using RGB LEDs and when large sections of a building are equipped with Glassiled Motion, the building’s facade becomes a video screen while preserving transparency from within the building.

The lightning control systems aims at providing a flexible system that can be used both for large video walls or smaller projects. Its consists of 3 (hierachical) building blocks that can be combined into controller systems that conveniently control either a single glass, a group of glasses or a whole wall of glasses.

This project was a cooperation with our partners Brandneww and ThomasVDD. RED (as subcontractant of BrandNeww) was responsible for the development of the last building block (i.e. the block closest to the glass) that takes data and configuration settings from other building blocks and sends the data to 2 Glassiled Motion glasses according to these settings. 

Automated LED-current verification system for Glassiled Motion production GlassiledController AGC
AGC Glass Europe


2017 - 2018

To test Glassiled Motion glasses during production, the current through the different LEDs needs to be tested to verify whether the current is within tolerance and whether there are no faulty LEDs. The developed system is able to turn ON and OFF the glass power supply and individual LEDs and monitor their current with a multimeter in an automated way. The system will log all currents and produce a report with all currents, faults and statistics.
An additional 1-to-12 glass splitter was developped as well.

Design and realization of a compact, USBpowered fluorescence lifetime benchtop meter Master thesis Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Vrije Universiteit Brussel


2014

The objective was to design and realize a fluorescence lifetime meter. The device needed to be as compact as possible and USB-powered. The design includes hardware design, PCB design and software design. The result was a functional protoype, measuring fluorescence lifetimes. This project was awarded the IMEC-price for best master thesis of the faculty engineering of the year 2014.

This technology was later on studied in more detail and the device improved further during a PhD.
