Meaningful product design
There is more to product design that aesthetics and appearance. It is also worth considering how the product should sound and whether the product design is meaningful for the user. Read more about this in this edition of the Agenda newsletter. You can also learn more by attending our free seminar 'Designing for Meaningfulness' 27 September – see to the right in this newsletter.

Enjoy your reading.

3 Principles for Meaningful IoT
IoT devices are often seen as temporary and are “planned for obsolescence”. In this article, our IoT expert share 3 principles that will help you create meaningful and long lasting IoT devices.
Common language to describe sound
A new ITU-report describes how to develop a vocabulary for sound characteristics. This enables audio professionals to communicate efficiently when talking about sound perception in the context of audio reproduction.
Function-critical design of wireless hardware
Since the beginning of the millennium, wireless devices have had a - sometimes well-founded -  reputation for being unreliable. However, it is possible to design wireless systems with secure communication.
The committee that approves EMC and radio standards
The directives EMCD and RED are administered by the EU commission, and the supporting standards are handled by the technical commitee TC210. Together with a specialist in the field, the committee maintains a list of the standards that can be used to declare conformity with the directives. This work is ongoing.
Wind-induced limitations at a new airport in Greenland
Terrain-induced turbulence and windshear is often a problem for airports in Greenland. When designing a new airport, a windtunnel test can address where and when the challenge from the wind will be at an acceptable level.
