About

Smartwatch that converts body heat into a power supply

Limited battery power in smartwatches reduces their efficacy when sometimes our requirement for them to be functioning is crucial

Heat-sync utilises thermoelectric technology to create an autonomous stable power supply by con-verting body heat into electrical energy. The device works by transforming the temperature differ-ences between two axes: the heat from the wrist and the stainless-steel case as a heat sink. The greater the differences, the more power can be generated, reducing energy burden, whilst provid-ing a quality display.

    I am an industrial designer from Hong Kong, currently based in London. I have experience working on diverse projects, ranging from tableware to consumer electronics. In 2021, I completed my Master in Product Design at Ecole cantonale d'art de Lausanne (ecal) in Switzerland. My work considers how objects can influence the environment, our feelings, and our connection with others, bringing happiness to people through design and valuing detail and aesthetics. more
