Cyrc
Cyrc is a social platform where designers & thinkers from all over the world can come together to share their circular design strategies.
Circular Design is an economical system aimed at eliminating waste through repair, re-use and recycling.
Here are some circular strategies:
The benefits of moving to a circular economy are that we can design out waste from the production process and regenerate natural resources.
Augmented Reality Murals
The Cyrc Augmented Reality Murals can be viewed around the city in parks. It can be brought to life using Augle or Gif-iti apps. Just point your camera and watch!
Stickers
Cyrc stickers can be found at local farmers markets. They are meant to intrigue the reader, have them look at their food differently, and lead them to the @Cyrc.ularity page.
Info Pamphlets
The Cyrc info pamphlets are meant to engage viewers who are out in nature, and give them a unique way to be introduced to Circular Design.
Autonomous Rover
The Autonomous Rover Chassis re-design was a joint project done for the Sait Drone Laboratory by a select group of AUArts Undergraduate Research Assistants chosen by Assistant Professor Bryan Cera.
The goal was to create a chassis that was: light-weight, able to attach/modify with existing sensors, easily modifiable in the field (should batteries or cables need to be replaced), and beautiful in design.
Our team was able to create a completely working 3D Printed Rover chassis, equipped with working lights, cameras and circuit boards.
NOODS Magazine
Noods is a playful magazine that dives deep into the world of the modern foodie with content that fills your mouth and appetite with good food and an even better time with friends.
Round Town
Round Town is a monthly subscription based ride-share service meant to elevate the experience of inner-city exploration through cycling, while eliminating the hassle of owning and maintaining a bicycle.
By leasing a Round Town bicycle each month, users are able to sign-up either through the app or in-store and begin their new adventure right away!
The weapon of choice
Round Town uses the Vanmoof S3, a motor-assisted city bike that has built-in lights/locks and comes in a variety of colours to suit every style.
The Hub
Users can customize their bicycle colour, book a support visit from one of our mobile mechanics or plan their next city adventure all in one place.
Exploration made easy
By exploring their town and arriving at their selected destination, they’ll unlock a Geo Code that gives them a discount to a nearby shop/eatery, helping promote local businesses.
Free Parking
Round Town provides bike racks around both major and minor attractions to help make city exploration easier and safer.
A handle to hold onto
For transit users, Round Town provides them with a more exciting way to hold on and pull the brakes on their boring commute.
Become a Round Towner
Thanks to partnerships with local bike shops, users can be better supported through their vast expertise, multiple locations and on-hand mechanics. Sponsors help make Round Town more accessible, better supported and ever growing in the community.
Aneurysm Awareness
Aneurysm Awareness is a video campaign created for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation. It is meant to bring awareness and foster a more educated community surrounding aneurysms.
