TAP-109 Charging bay

Industrial

The solution

The TAP-109 Charging Bay system provides rapid charging for a fleet of iPods where mass charging is necessary.

The system integrates a 27-port USB hub, well beyond the size of most normal hub architectures, to assist with software updates and large-scale application deployment to the devices while connected to a host PC.

A unique feature is the distributed power supply system that allows for efficient, low-temperature, fan-less operation, all while delivering full power to each of the devices on charge.

Evolving the product

These charging units have been designed, engineered and manufactured by us in Melbourne, Australia. And over the years we have worked with our client, Art Processors to evolve the solution, so it can be used at a larger scale—and across the globe.

The processes and technology developed through this partnership have been deployed in well known cultural spaces such as the Smithsonian Institute in the US.

Works

Code of Conscience

Working in an environmentally conscious way and giving to the open-source community has always been important to us. Thus, we were excited to be part of Code of Conscious, an incredible global initiative to help save the Amazonian rainforest.

Zoo Feeder

The Zoo Feeder project was an amazing opportunity for us to give back to Melbourne Zoo through an electro-mechanical device that gamifies feeding time for carnivores.

Nano IR sensor

Working with Nano Components, we made an existing IR sensing solution better. We re-engineered all aspects of the hardware to make a new sensor array for interference-based presence sensing at high speed.
