In 2007 No Picnic met a bunch of crazy guys who wanted to take a full DJ-system and make it completely portable. As always, our answer was, why not. The result that came out was a revolutionary product launched in 2008 called Pacemaker® Device. It gained hugh respect within the DJ community and won a total of 14 international design awards.
The years passed, new platforms arrived and people got a whole new view on portability and usability with smartphones and tablets taking over the market. Pacemaker saw a golden opportunity and a chance to get back in the game – Let´s go digital and transform the Pacemaker Device in for a touch interface! With this idea once again came to No Picnic in august 2011 gave us the task of developing interaction and graphics design for their coming app.
Finally, we can show you the Pacemaker® App, available in june for Blackberry Playbook
Here’s a video from Blackberry World Congress where Pacemaker CEO Jonas Norberg, is presenting the app for the first time:

Before joining No Picnic, designer Kenny Wong did his bachelors project for ABB Robotics. This project led to two years development work together with a large and international engineering team for realization of the project. The project right now is a prototype for development under the name FRIDA (Friendly Robot for Industrial Dual arm Assembly). FRIDA is an easy-to-install robot that can work safely next to humans, in places that are ergonomically designed for manual assembly, without the need for separating the workspace of human and machine. The project recently reached high credibility with the Red Dot Design Concept Award Best of the Best.
A big thank you to all of our guests who made this Lucia celebration extra enjoyable!
For those who could not make it, we have captured this moment of Swedish Tradition on video.
