Licht expert en Propeaq–oprichter Toine Schoutens wil lichttherapie beschikbaar maken voor iedereen, met een draagbare oplossing: een modern ogende unisex bril met ingebouwde technologie ondersteund met een app. Het GBO-Team heeft een modern ontwerp gerealiseerd met daarin de gepatenteerde technologie op het gebied van lichttherapie zorgvuldig verwerkt.
Propeaq has established a strong position as an innovator in markets where quality of life and (athletic) results are crucial, with its first and second-generation glasses.
The Light Glasses are a perfect example of our integrated approach from sketch to shelf. Our responsibility for the delivered end product (including packaging) allows us and Propeaq to speak of a partnership where we work together on the success of the product.
Designing a 'facial-wearable' is a challenge in itself. Factors such as proportions, comfort, and aesthetics gain extra significance. In this case, an additional layer of complexity was added: the integration of electronic components, including a flexible circuit board, LEDs, and a battery. It was a true design puzzle to create a refined product while maintaining the desired sporty and elegant design.
To optimize the comfort of the glasses, the design focused around the weight, volume, stiffness, and flexibility. The team made significant efforts to realize the ideal design and personally tested the comfort with various prototypes. Subsequently, numerous models and prototypes were evaluated by the selected user group.
