Hi Team, Very smart idea :D I think you have to add more details concerning power supply, insulating, safety and anti-theft... Good luck
Hi HichamBahr, thank you for your feedback. In our next update, you'll find more detailed explanation of our thoughts and suggestions for these subjects.
Very creative thinking. The concept is great really. But I agree with Hicham- it needs a lot of work with technical parts, the feasibility and stuff :)
Thank you Fatima Sinanovic. We needed more time to explain our thoughts on these issues. We will evaluate our time better and make the necessary explanations soon. :)
Congratulations for the Halftime Award, dear Hakan and Engin!
This is definitely a very clever and elegant door solution that could work for cold, hot and normal packages; and a great space saver. And it could exist, in the rural area / suburban areas for example, on garage door, or simply on the house wall etc etc etc. Something different is something good. Maybe you want to explore that a bit as well. What the client would also like to see more of is the daily use of the product.
A "very Miele" solution. Keep going! ;) Diana
Hi Diana, thank you very much for your considerations and suggestions. This award will motivate us much better to update our presentation in more detailed way.
We also have other ideas to show you in the next update and we hope that we will keep it cool! :)
Thank you and Miele again...
Thank you very much Joanaf. We congratulate your team too! ;-)
Thank you very much Bogdan Tanese-Marinescu. Good luck also for you!
Thank you very much Agnes Kato! Glad to hear that. :) Good luck also for you!
Congrats, well deserved. I also like few updates since I seen the idea first :)
Really good work. Good Luck
Great update, dear team! You've managed to keep the simplicity behind this idea, and also solve many points. If you have any thoughts about the mechanism and technology behind this, it would be great to hear them.
And, thinking about the entire chain, who would you see as potential partners for Miele? First, who do you see to own and pay for the solution? The user (customer)? The owner of the house/flat (landlord)? etc. And second, with who would Miele need to partner with in terms of supply chain (i.e. Amazon, supermarkets, etc.)? Exciting to think about these things too.
Good luck! Diana
Hi Diana, Thank you for your comments and valuable support. We tried to improve our description for HUG on the simplest way but unfortunately we couldn’t find enough space for the whole description of the system’s solution. Thank you for your curiosity which give us the opportunity to explain better our thoughts behind that design. :)
The technology behind this idea is origami inspired, self-folding, robotic surfaces.
They can be 4D printed and they can form programmed shapes.

As the material of the surfaces, it might be used Digital Shape Memory Polymers. The shape memory behavior of the hinges, including shape fixity and shape recovery, can be controlled by the applied mechanical and thermal-temporal programming and recovery conditions. https://www.nature.com/articles/srep13616
Also robotic technology can be used. In that solution, the robot self-assembles using a folding process that is triggered by heating. The robots body has embedded in it a small magnet which allows the user to control the robot by programming a magnetic field. NASA, MIT and Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences have developed self-folding robots. Here are some examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVYz7g-qLjs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M1zNIVGrjM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddXtyym4OA8
So in that case, technical universitys’ partnership might be useful.
The secure volumes of HUG are designed for different temperatures, considering the existing standard box sizes of major and global package delivery companies such as DHL, FedEx and UPS. We think that some partnerships with these companies and with different providers of grocery delivery services such as Amazon and local supermarket chains might be the right step to follow.
HUG has two different installation options: On the door of the individual flats and on the wall of common spaces.
On the door use, as it is a product that we can fix and remove easily from the inside of the apartment, it might belong to the tenant/user (who rents the house) and he/she may dismantle it when moves to another place to live.
In common space use, HUG might be purchased by the neighbors who share it. Also the building managements can purchase it and can provide that as a part of their service for a small amount of payment.
Sorry for the long post. We hope that will help to explain our thoughts better. :) Thank you again.
Dear team, this is very very useful information. I really encourage you to integrate some of it in your presentation. How? Worth thinking about!
Yea!! Nice idea! Like the origami inspiration a lot, simple and clever solution! All the best, Simon
Thank you very much Simon Stolz :) Good luck and all the best also for you!
I think this is a winner,.... very innovative, differently amazing and you team did an excelent work so my top rate for you both ;-))
Hi Joanaf! It is very valuable to hear this from you. Thank you very much :) We also find very original your ideas and we hope that the one who deserves it wins. All the best...
Best of luck team!!! Great idea, I'd love to have this product for myself for sure! :)
Thank you very much Pavlina! Great to hear that from you! Who knows, maybe one day ;))
This is one of my fav and very creative.... congratsss team you deserve it ;-)
Congrats- WELL DESERVED- it definitely is one of the best ideas and presentations.
