In collaborating with the Event Agency Idea Nordic, I programmed these LED jackets.
Unfortunately the left most jacket got a mailfunction, that\’s what\’s happening in show biz. Even though jackets and dance rehearsal was tested and practiced hundreds of times, it didn\’t work on the day.
I will keep the excuses for why the left suit didn\’t work out of the scope of this text.
My brother, father and I, took a +5000 km trip though europe joining the Carbage run \’22.
A trip where everyone has doped their old garbage car.
We decided to do a pink panther teamed car, similar to the car from dumb and dumber.
The project was a great succes and had a lot of attraction and we had a great time both build and driving the car.
The project is pro bono for an art group.
I was happy to have been involved in this art project, as the task was to construct an icosahedron (20 faced polyhedrons) from 2-meter long frosted acrylic pipes with LED\’s inside.
The construction was going to end up almost 3.5 meters tall and was going to be a lightbox, that people can walk into.
My role as the lead mechanical engineer, having the duty of design, stress test, and manufacturing.
An icosahedron is a rather strong shape but fragile when incomplete so a major question was how to construct the shape and if the acrylic pipes will hold to the forces.
The shape was modeled in 3D (Fusion 360) to have simulations of light and load test, this also help a lot in the construction of the bracket holding up the tubes.
The 30 brackets and feet are constructed from 4 mm corten steel, it\’s designed for laser-cutting with bend lines and afterward, bend to an angle gauge, and lastly spot welded it gives the strength the holding up the load.
4 person assembly on site in 6 hours, job well done.

The BetaMaster project is an all-in-one facility management tool for maker spaces, workshops, and more.
The system handles bookings, usage certificates/safety courses, guides, services intervals, and loan of equipment.
The system is different from the other booking sites online as it’s also working with a physical device (the BetaBox) where users unlock the machine with their keycard.
The BetaBox knows all the bookings, allowed users, and reports the usage and run time of the machines, to let the workshop manager have even better control.
Inattention is a dominant factor in 1/3 of all deadly accidents in Danish traffic. One of the big sources of inattention is the usage of phones while driving. The first part of this project investigates the use of mobile phones while driving. In the second part, a solution is presented and tested.
The result of the first part of the report is that a phone is a tool in the car. This means that although the informants all were against phone use while driving, they still used their phones. Some interactions were unconscious and some were extended due to the fact, that the phone is not designed to be used in the car.
The result of the second part of the report is a button, which enables the drivers to use voice assistants. Through improved feedback, voice interactions were successfully carried out while driving and test persons preferred these interactions compared to traditional interaction with the phone. The visual and motile attention was greatly improved, while there were also signs of improved cognitive attention.
The proposed solutions enable drivers to carry out needed interactions in a safer manner and also shows potential to prevent interactions. However further tests need to be conducted for this to be concluded.
As a project for a pharmaceutical company, they wished to renovate an existing cleanroom from what\’s called an ISO 7 to an ISO 5 which is cleaner than an operating room. Usually, this classification is only in a small hood, not a whole room and there we had to build it in a 200 m2 room.
As part of my internship, I was put on the project to know how to build clean rooms what the newest research in the industry is to apply it to the project.
The room is design to do approx 700 air changes per hour which is more than 200 times the circulation in a restroom with the exhaust on.
Vermilion Racing is a Formula Student racing team that is part University team there builds racecars to compete in the FSUK at Silverstone to race against more the 200 other teams from all over the world
I joined the team to get the battery for the electrical racer developed and build.
The battery is no joke. The battery to drive these cars are containing extreme amounts of power. The battery was a Li-PO driven 532VDC (600VDC MAX) and 6kW pack. This pack was able to safely deliver 150A for a 30s period. The project was all about building a safe package! Building this battery has a lot of safety features. Devices for cutting power, such as fuses and relays, monitoring devices, BMS system, and isolation monitoring device for check the battery isn\’t shorted to the chassis. As cutting power from 600V @ 200A MAX is not an easy task
When building the battery I got very engaged in the car and quickly got to be on the management level. With my education in process and innovation, this was also a more usual place for me.
At the management level, I was lead of the electrical. The main goal is getting a better electrical system as the team previously was driving by mechanical engineers and the electrical part was therefore lacking. I\’m no expert in electronics but I got my basic so I\’m able to communicate and help fix problems. But the main goal was budget and time scheduling.
As part of my work at Vermilion Racing, I received a diploma for extraordinary work and skill, you can see the full diploma here:
Even though we didn\’t win for the fast car as we were only a 2nd year team competing against teams with years of experience (and a lot more money). We managed to win the prize for the most professional team. Read the article below

The Bocart project is a collaboration project between the company Bocart A/S and The Technical University of Denmark.
As part of the course Innovation Pilot, we were faced with several challenges and then left on our own to find the most important problem and its solution therefor.
We choose to make the Bocart easier to ship. Our goal was to fit the Bocart on a standard EU pallet which required so to cut the mainframe of the chassis into two parts and make a joint the customer easy could assemble. The company Bocart also required a unique design there can be protected by design laws.
The join type got features at DTU\’s newsletter read that here and on technovation read that article here.
Below can be seen the newer Bocart design and the old design side by side
Herlev Hospital are/was under expansion. There are being build a new hospital building and robot or AGV (Automated guided vehicle) has been implemented to support the staff in the daily support tasks as food or goods delivery.
It\’s not a fully automated process and the robots has to work in the same environment.
The new robots are in the way is the response from the staff and there is not a great will to work with them. The current environment is also not a good environment for robots there is simply not enough space for the high traffic from the staff and also having the robots driving as they slow down every time an object is close to it.
Our study groups comes in to analyze the culture and problems and look for cultural changes to get a greater cooperation.
We found multiple findings, but one of the more interesting findings was that just we being there and talked to the staff helped.
By being there and talking to the staff gave the employees a better understanding across the organization so almost without us noticing the culture changed. The leadership return to us and talked about the great improvement we have made.
We started with a more practical solution to their problem but found that the cross organization communication we facilitated was way more power full then the solution we had to improve the elevator traffic.
This was one of the first exposures I had to the power of culture and has after this been a turning stone for where I toke my education.
A Java programming project. As part of learning about embedded technology Java was also tought here build in LEGO with the LEGO minestone \’brick\’ as the controller. Here real Java code can be uploaded to the \’brick\’ and controlled.
Multiple project was build doing the course but the course ends with a self build – self programmed project.
Here I build a sorting robot able to sort LEGO bricks by color.
The project was build by a color sensor for color detection, a distance sensor for tracking the position of the feeder, dual synced motors for movement, and a switch for counting the number of LEGO bricks sorted.
