MoreInspiration is a searchable database containing thousands of innovative products, technologies and design solutions from a wide range of industries. Students can browse examples by sector or filter them according to functions and properties, such as improving ergonomics, reducing material use or combining multiple functions.
The platform forms part of AULIVE, an innovation organisation led by CEO Simon Dewulf that develops tools and methods intended to support creativity, product development and systematic innovation.
Rather than copying an existing solution, students can use the database to identify principles that might transfer between unrelated products or industries.
Worth considering: How could a solution from another industry inspire a new approach to your design problem?
Design themes: Design research, benchmarking, innovation methods, cross-industry inspiration and concept generation.
