Strategic Analysis for Wireless Connectivity via a Lighting Grid
No full textOne of the critical questions in the current era is how to provide broadband internet for all and second how to realise the digitally connected city of the future. The Covid-19 pandemic painfully exposed a crisis of internet access in many low-income and rural areas in the world. While many people in the Western world could easily shift to teleworking and online education, still 3.7 billion people worldwide do not have access to reliable and high-speed internet (United Nations, 2021). Terragraph, an intellectual property technology that emerged from the Facebook Connectivity group, aims to bridge this digital divide and has a mission to bring more people online to a faster internet. This thesis is executed at BrightSites, a technology venture within Signify. It is the result of almost six months of work covering multiple domains in the intelligent street lighting industry. The main research question of this thesis was to analyse the role of Gbit luminaires in the digitally connected city of the future. Gbit luminaires are innovative fixtures that can enable wireless connectivity on the outdoor lighting grid. These fixtures can provide fibre-like speeds due to the incorporation of mmWave radios that utilise Terragraphs' technology. One of the research outcomes is a theoretical framework that shows stakeholders value capture and value creation motivations. In this project context, value capture is defined as how a particular stakeholder wants to be rewarded for becoming part of the Gbit luminaire ecosystem. On the other hand, value creation is defined as how a specific stakeholder can deliver value and strengthen the Gbit luminaire ecosystem. The findings show that the Gbit luminaire is part of a conservative regulatory environment in an interdependent ecosystem. Furthermore, the framework sheds some new light on the gaps between BrightSites, market players and municipalities. In the Gbit luminaire ecosystem, the following gaps are perceived: 1. The value gap, 2. The knowledge gap, 3. The financial gap, and 4. The urgency gap. The opportunities for technology-driven organisations to solve gaps and prepare for the future lay in user-centred roadmaps. The type of roadmap developed in this project is a design roadmap, which is still limited in use but getting more attention in the literature and across industries. Design roadmaps differ from traditional technology or product roadmaps as it centres on end-user's values, rather than the technology portfolio and organisational goals. The design roadmap is developed from a European municipal decision-maker perspective while considering the shared desirability in the ecosystem. The main conclusion that can be drafted is that the product proposition should be perceived, developed and pitched from an ecosystem level. In addition, the author suggests that the (Gbit) luminaire should be positioned as a hosting solution rather than a wireless fibre extender. The main argument is that every stakeholder in the Gbit luminaire ecosystem should feel that a specific problem is solved since this is considered as the only way to succeed and achieve widespread deployment.Strategic Product Desig

Fifty-third annual report for the year ended 31st March 1985
No full textThe author reviews the stratigraphic diatom profile of Cumbrian lakes since the last glaciation. Knowledge of both present and previous interglacials suggests that a natural cycle of change is imposed on all lakes. The nature of inwashed material is dependant on climatic and natural soilcycles and this affects the water quality and sensitive aquatic biota. Anthropogenic effects are superimposed upon this with forest clearance and pollution. Whilst some Cumbrian diatom profiles extend over the entire post glacial, others cover only detailed sections relating to particular problems. Causes and effect of recent changes in lakes can be studied using indicator species but palaeocology contributes greatly to understanding of long term changes
Welcome to my Bubble: Designing the interaction between pedestrian, autonomous vehicle and the city at cross walk
No full textIn a future where most of our transit system consists of autonomous vehicle, the question is raised how we as humans interact and communicate with them, and they with us. This project explores these interactions in the current time to uncover how humans interact and negotiate in traffic. More specifically how pedestrians do so. From the analysis it came forward that such interactions are mainly based on implicit communications – messages sent through behavioural cues that are not necessarily meant as a message. This contradicts the belief that humans use mostly explicit communications such as eye contact and gestures to communicate with fellow traffic participants. The disappearance of the driver might thus not have as much of an impact of the effectivity with which we humans can communicate with autonomous vehicles. However, many research currently study how more explicit communication tools, such as external human machine interfaces (eHMI) on the vehicle can help the pedestrian in making their decision to cross. These studies do find that there is a slight benefit to these eHMI systems, however they are not as significant as one might hope. eHMI systems also present several concerns including their visibility from afar, ambiguity and one sided communication. Especially that last concern is one that is central in this project. The process follows the guidelines of the Vision in Product design process, which explores current day interactions and context to then formulate a vision for the future. Based on this future and the gained insights a design statement is formulated that contains the goal to be fulfilled by the final design. The goal defined in this project is as follows: designing a cross walk that prioritises pedestrian transit while maintaining an efficient interaction between autonomous vehicle and the pedestrian. The final design proposal presents a cross walk that uses animations that come to life through lights integrated in the floor tiles. The cross walk is unique in its design as it extends onto the side walk to allow pedestrians to consciously show their intention to cross towards the autonomous vehicle. The cross walk is able to register the pedestrian. Since the cross walk registers the pedestrian early on, it can send a signal to the autonomous vehicle to slow down to give the pedestrian the right of way. The pedestrian receives feedback that shows them how safe it is for them to cross through the use of these animations. A series of animations have been designed and evaluated and based on the results a final set of animations has been designed. These animations will communicate that is either safe or not safe for the pedestrian to cross. As such, the pedestrian is able to actively communicate with the autonomous vehicle and receives personal feedback, instead of being told what to do by the autonomous vehicle what to do. Bringing both their different communication bubbles together and translating them through the cross walk so both understand what the other will do.Integrated Product Desig
