XR Bachelor End Project

The brief
For the XR Bachelor End Project, we worked with students from Industrial Design Engineering on a video production connected to their final project.

Behind the scenes
The source material for this project is limited, but like many student-driven productions, the work sat in translating a project outcome into a visual format that could present it clearly and professionally.

Why this one stood out
Projects like this are always interesting because they connect directly to student work and experimentation. They are often smaller in scale, but they show a very hands-on side of what we do.

Client: Students Faculty Industrial Design Engineering
VR technician: Sharif Bayoumy
Camera Operator: Geraldo Solisa, Hector Nieman, Boris Swaen
Student: Bart de Vries

Reimagining Pop-Up Books Through Mixed Reality: A Collaborative Preservation Initiative

June 30, 2025

Pop-up and movable books captivate with their interactive artistry, yet their fragility limits access—especially in archival collections like the KB. Through an innovative collaboration between KB and TU Delft’s XR Zone, researcher Willemijn Elkhuizen explores how mixed reality (XR) can preserve and transform these delicate treasures. By translating the sensory and emotional qualities of pop-up books into digital and hybrid experiences, the project opens new avenues for engaging and safeguarding cultural heritage.

Blended Learning Animations – Who Is the Engineer of the Future?

June 11, 2025

How do students discover who they want to become? At TU Delft, the Mechanical Engineering faculty paired with the New Media Centre’s Graphics team to address that question through animated storytelling. By developing eight distinct “Engineer of the Future” personas—each with its own narrative, style, and personality—students could see relatable career paths. Hand-drawn illustrations and concise two-minute videos translated complex concepts into engaging scripts, creating a compelling blended learning experience that inspires and informs.
