The iF Design award 2017 goes to …
The iF Industrie Forum Design e. V. represents the oldest independent design institution in the world. The annual iF Design awards honor products from various branches. An international expert committee evaluates product’ s design excellence based on criteria like usability, innovation, or spatial concept. Out of 5500 submissions in 2017, the IDS3010 was certified in the category“ industry / skilled trades”.

• Spatial concept
• Production efficiency
• Use value and usability
• Degree of innovation
Elaborated Spatial Concept
One challenge in the design of the IDS3010 was the compact size in combination with a highest level of functionalities. While other laser interferometers exceed the size of the IDS3010 by ten times or more, the compact design enables the IDS3010 for machine integration or space-limited applications. Since the sensor heads get along without electronic components, they have lower spatial requirements and they are more robust against harsh environments.
Usability emphasizes outstanding functionality
The iF Design award indicates outstanding functionality coming along with a highest level of aesthetics and design quality. While the passive cooling fulfills an essential function of the devices, it also serves as a design element supporting the aesthetic appearance and usability of the product. The IDS combines highest technology and ease of use in one device. attoSENSORICS
