The CombOLED project launched a new OLED design contest. The idea is to use thin, efficient and transparent OLED lighting panels to make an OLED lamp, preferably in one of those fields - mood lighting / emotional lighting, static signage or low-content information display.
They defined three possible categories - students, professionals, and people who attend the CombOLED workshops. You have to be quick, though - they will only accept applications until the end of January 2009. The three winners for each category will get a cash prize (â¬3,000 for the student, â¬7,000 for the professional and â¬5,000 for the workshop attendee). The ranking will be based on several factors:
⢠Originality/Novelty;
⢠Feasibility to build a prototype;
⢠Potential to breach and enter its own market;
⢠Idea’s peculiarity (how the proposal is stitched on CombOLED device objectives and not feasible with the other light sources available on the market.
