The result of their efforts was the Ulmer Nests, insulated sleeping pods designed to offer protection and warmth during cold nights. These pods were conceived rapidly, with the basic concept and a prototype developed within just 48 hours. The design included essential features such as good insulation, solar panels, space for two people, and accommodations for pets. Additionally, the pods were equipped with sensors to monitor temperature, humidity, smoke, and carbon dioxide levels, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. A ventilation system, lighting, and a lockable door further enhanced the functionality and security of the pods.
The Ulmer Nests were not intended as a permanent housing solution but as an emergency measure for those who have no other options. The team worked tirelessly to refine the design, making improvements based on feedback and real-world testing. For example, modifications were made to the doors to enhance usability, and insulation and climate management were optimized to maintain the best possible conditions with minimal energy use. The pods were also integrated into Ulm’s wireless IoT network, allowing social workers to monitor their usage and maintain hygiene standards.
