New Year

In a tranquil courtyard, amidst the gentle flurry of winter's snow and the vibrant hues of autumn leaves, sits a graceful figure adorned in an exquisite Kimono. The scene evokes the essence of Wabisabi, embodying the beauty of solitude and serenity. Delicate patterns adorn the fabric, mostly Pines, symbolizing solemnity; and the rhythmic Seigaiha representing the tranquility of the sea. Zooming in reveals more intricate details, a stone plate bearing the artist's pen-name rests to the left; and upon the Kimono, patterns of mice representing the new year 2020, the year of mice.

Seniors Keeper

Senior Keeper is a smart door lock connected with vital signs sensing devices, such as smartwatches. When the elderly encounter an emergency at home, it will emit a red light, project fonts for help, notify emergency contacts, and automatically open the door. When neighbours or rescuers find out, they can ask the elderly about their condition through the microphone on the door lock, and the elderly can answer remotely using the door lock's speaker. Finally, the rescuer can decide whether to enter the door to give help according to the specific situation.
