Three Olympic Games
For three Olympic cycles, we were chosen to create innovative training tools that would bring the athletes a little closer to perfection. We are proud to be part of their journey towards achieving their Olympic dream.
3X3 Basketball
Samsung ShotControl
Samsung ShotControl is an AI-powered training tool designed to enhance athletic performance through real-time data insights. By tracking field position, shot accuracy, and heart rate, it provides a comprehensive view of an athlete’s condition, including key indicators of fatigue.
All performance data is streamed directly to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold, offering coaches and athletes an intuitive, on-the-go interface to analyze strengths and weaknesses. With access to this rich dataset, training can be tailored more precisely, enabling data-driven decisions that lead to measurable improvements in performance.
BMX
Samsung FastFrame
We developed a custom BMX bicycle fully integrated into the training setup of the Dutch Olympic BMX Team, designed to deliver precise, real-time performance feedback. Embedded sensors and data systems capture every aspect of the rider’s effort, from power output and cadence to technique and timing, creating a closed feedback loop that links performance outcomes directly to the actions that produced them.
This bespoke solution enables coaches and athletes to analyze training sessions in detail, identify patterns, and refine technique with data-driven precision, supporting peak performance on the path to competition.
Short track
Samsung SmartSuit
During early discussions with the coach, athletes, and embedded scientist of the Dutch short track speed skating team, one persistent challenge became clear: accurately measuring how close an athlete’s body comes to the ice during high-speed turns, a critical factor in technique and performance. Initial attempts using technologies like Lidar, sonar, and infrared were hindered by the ice’s wet surface, delivering inconsistent results.
Returning to the drawing board, we developed a novel solution that bypassed environmental interference entirely: a sensor-integrated suit that could capture posture and lean angle without relying on external sensors. Designed to be unobtrusive and fully compatible with daily training, the suit provided reliable, real-time feedback and quickly became a staple in the team’s performance analysis. Originally developed for a PR campaign, it evolved into a vital training tool, and yes, it contributed to podium finishes, including medal-winning performances at the Winter Olympics.

Odido Teamflag
Odido challenged us to create a custom country flag that blends emotional storytelling with innovative technology. The result was a dynamic, illuminated flag designed to honor athletes by showcasing the names of their supporters, each name carefully lit and animated to create a moving tribute.
Despite its advanced features, the flag maintains the look and feel of a traditional banner, lightweight and waveable, with no visible wires or external power source. Controlled entirely by a remote, it delivers a powerful, personal experience during celebrations, blending craftsmanship, emotion, and seamless engineering into a truly unique piece.

Verve Infocrank
The InfoCrank by Verve Cycling is a high-precision power meter designed for cyclists who demand accuracy in both training and competition. By measuring torque and cadence directly at the crank, where power is generated, it delivers some of the most reliable performance data available.
We developed a companion application that not only connects to and manages the InfoCrank but also provides personalized feedback based on the user’s riding patterns and athletic profile. This integration of hardware precision and intelligent software creates a seamless, insightful experience, helping riders understand and improve their performance with every pedal stroke.

Dell Smartdesk
Originally conceived as a simple interactive presentation for a small group of potential partners, this project quickly evolved into a full-scale roadshow across the USA, reaching over 50 key stakeholders. What began as a basic slideshow grew into a fully functional prototype, featuring working applications that allowed users to freely explore and interact with the software.
A standout element was the custom-designed totem, a physical dial that could glide across the screen, rotate, and intuitively select or manipulate content within the active application. At the time (2014), this hands-on, hybrid interface was groundbreaking, marking one of the first implementations of its kind and demonstrating a forward-thinking approach to interactive storytelling and product demonstration.

Samsung In-Traffic Reply
To promote safer driving, we developed an Android application that automatically manages incoming notifications when the user is driving, effectively reducing distractions behind the wheel. The app detects when someone is in traffic and temporarily takes over alerts, ensuring the driver remains focused on the road.
Designed with simplicity and safety in mind, it has since been adopted as the standard safety feature on all Samsung flagship devices in the Benelux region. Today, it plays a key role in the Dutch government’s official MoNo campaign, reinforcing its impact as a trusted tool in the effort to make roads safer.

Philips AED Shirt
During the Eindhoven Marathon, a powerful fusion of technology and public health took center stage as three runners wore custom-designed LED Matrix shirts developed in collaboration with Philips. Each shirt featured 850 individually addressable LEDs that displayed, in real time, the distance to the nearest Automated External Defibrillator (AED).
This striking visual demonstration highlighted Philips’ initiative to promote "6-minute zones", critical areas where cardiac arrest victims can receive life-saving intervention within the vital six-minute window. By combining dynamic light art with urgent health messaging, the project emphasized how timely access to CPR and AEDs dramatically increases survival rates, turning the marathon route into a moving awareness campaign for heart health and emergency preparedness.

Converse Laces
As part of the launch of the new Chuck Taylor All Star II under Nike’s supervision, an interactive in-store experience was developed to offer customers a personalised touch. The setup features a custom machine that allows users to create unique printed aglets, the tips of the shoelaces. Inside a sleek display box, the machine prints four custom sleeves based on the user’s design choice.
With the press of a button, a clear protective cage lowers, and the sleeves are heat-shrunk into place right before the user’s eyes. Once the process is complete, the cage lifts, revealing the finished, customised laces ready to be attached to a new pair of All Stars. This hands-on experience adds a personal dimension to the product launch, blending branding, technology, and tactile engagement in a simple, memorable way.

TCS Marathon
A seemingly simple yet technically sophisticated running game was created for the Amsterdam and Berlin Marathons, blending physical effort with interactive digital experience. Built in Unity3D and powered by Kinect for real-time skeleton tracking, the game allowed participants to run in place on a custom pressure-sensitive mat that dynamically adjusted their speed in the virtual environment.
As they ran through a digital journey of the seven TCS-sponsored marathon cities, players could collect power-ups by reaching with their arms, adding an engaging layer of interactivity. Upon crossing the virtual finish line, a green screen photo was instantly captured, composited into the race scene, and printed on-site as a personalized keepsake. This seamless fusion of motion sensing, real-time graphics, and physical feedback created an immersive, memorable experience at the heart of the marathon event.
