My New Job

After being graduated, having Euro road trip and Turkish summer vacation I started to evaluate career opportunities. Gladly couple of different possibilities came up :)
Ecofys BV/Econcern Holding was one of those possibilities and that became the one I go for as next carrier step. I’ve been working in Ecofys already 2 months now. It is multi national sustainable energy company which has new office in Istanbul as well. (www.ecofys.com)
I have been working in Utrecht headquarters in the department of Design and construction services as product developer. For now I am working on quite interesting project which I can say and share more about it soon. And of course itx92s again about sustainable energy, public communication and a lot of fun.
I am curios myself about the results coming up ;)

spinnXS

More information about SpinnXS:
spinnXS main working principle is patented already by Dutch company OPALIO.(Opalio.com) I did my master graduation project with in the same company Opalio. I designed SpinnXS as interactive public communication device for retailer market. This product can deliver the sale message or promotion to the potential customers in the public street. It energize itself by wind energy. The reflective type electronic displays on the meddium allows dynamic refreshment of content which is provided by retailer. This content can be sale information, product, logo of the company, vs.. Spinnxs spins by wind energy, but if there is no wind it uses the energy from the batteries to turn it self by generator/motor system.(generator can be used as motor) By the same principle of radar while spinnxs turning on its axis it scans for the potential customers who approaches. When it detects a person it stops turning by facing the screen to the person and pops up a special promotional message to the person. This message can be ” Please open your bluetooth connection to get our digital discount flyer”. So spinnxs can be used also sending digital promotional content to customers digital devices.
Further on SpinnXS can recognize customers by their ID of their bluetooth device. So Messages can come more personilized to known customers or members. For instance “Good afternoon, Mr. Yakamoto,” it says. “How did you like that three-pack of tank tops you bought last time you were in?”
(last quote from a news about SpinnXS, source: Freshtechnology.net/gatgets-spinnxs )
With these features SpinnXS creates good opportunity for retailers who wants to promote their products effectively to the former and new potential customers on the street.
p.s. Please feel free to contact me or Opalio if you are interested to get more information about SpinnXS.
