TINK - sketching product experiences of connected objects
Tink is the result of my graduation project from the master in design for interaction at TUDelft. Tink is a web platform that connects products with one another via the Internet, it provides designers with a complete Internet of Things (IOT) development environment. Designers are provided with a rich stack of features to sketch, prototype and test IOT projects. Tink is a user-friendly, visual, collaborative, open-source tool for designers to build connected interactions among objects.

Graduation Assignment - 9<br />
CHAPTER 1<br />
Graduation assignment<br />
In this chapter the boundaries <strong>of</strong> the project and the graduation<br />
assignment are presented.<br />
1. SKETCHING is considered the main activity designers are engaged<br />
with 1 ; I’ll explain how this practice goes beyond drawing with markers<br />
on paper, and what are the characteristics <strong>of</strong> it.<br />
2. I’ll then analyse TOOLS, and the role they play for designers.<br />
3. I’ll then discuss the broad topic <strong>of</strong> the INTERNET OF THINGS 2<br />
(IoT). I’ll propose several definitions from literature in order to define<br />
the domain and the boundary <strong>of</strong> the project. At the end <strong>of</strong> the chapter,<br />
a working definition for “Connected Objects“ is introduced.
