TU Delft Impact Contest
Café Point
Every day, vast amounts of waste—coffee grounds, tea leaves, and other materials—are discarded without a second thought. At the same time, traditional games that have been played for generations risk being forgotten or remain unknown to new audiences. Many social gatherings revolve around mainstream card games, leaving little room for the rich diversity of games from different cultures. This initiative sees an opportunity to address both challenges at once: reducing waste while introducing more people to unique and meaningful games.

Traditional delivery systems rely on roads and ground vehicles, which are often slowed down by traffic congestion, poor infrastructure, and severe weather conditions. These delays are particularly problematic in situations where timely delivery is crucial, such as: Medical emergencies, where hospitals require blood, vaccines, or defibrillators immediately. Rural and remote communities, where supplies may take hours or days to arrive due to limited transportation options. Northern and mountainous regions, where extreme weather and impassable roads prevent access to life-saving goods. Disaster-stricken areas, where floods, landslides, or earthquakes make traditional transport impossible.

Veel productieprocessen, zoals verspaning, PCB-productie en spuitgieten, worden grotendeels uitbesteed aan lageloonlanden. Dit leidt tot een afhankelijkheid van externe markten, hogere logistieke kosten en minder controle over productie. Daarnaast stijgen de lonen in Europa, waardoor productie minder rendabel wordt. Door efficiëntere processen en slimmere productiesystemen kunnen we de productiekosten verlagen en lokale maakindustrie concurrerender maken. Bovendien kan dit bijdragen aan een lagere CO₂-uitstoot, doordat productie dichter bij de eindgebruiker plaatsvindt en minder transport nodig is.

The furniture industry relies heavily on wood, leading to deforestation, habitat destruction, and increased carbon emissions. At the same time, vast amounts of agricultural waste are generated but underutilized, contributing to environmental degradation. The challenge lies in transforming these waste streams into viable, high-quality alternatives to wood while ensuring economic feasibility and supply chain stability.

Coordinating EV charging between Charge Point Operators (CPOs), grid operators, and EV users remains a major challenge due to the lack of a one-stop solution. Existing platforms are often fragmented, making it difficult to optimize charging while considering grid constraints, pricing, and user preferences. Additionally, many solutions lack a simple web-based interface, limiting accessibility for stakeholders. Another key limitation is the absence of an ecosystem where new features, scheduling algorithms, and AI-based optimizations can seamlessly integrate as add-ons. This restricts flexibility and innovation, preventing stakeholders from adapting to evolving energy markets, dynamic grid conditions, and future technologies.
