Showcasing the best of Australian design, the 2010 Australian International Design Awards (a division of Standards Australia) celebrate the most revolutionary products this year. A selection of 16 finalists is on display at the Museum.. Covering various categories, these innovative products include a lightweight wine bottle, a pocket-size ultra-sound system, new surfboard design and a gaming headset that reads brain signals and facial expressions, rather than using a joystick. Also on show are works by the finalists of the James Dyson Award for concepts designed by Australian university students. Among the short-listed entries is a heart transplant storage unit, a fire reconnaissance vehicle for front line defence in bushfires and a wireless speaker unit for listening to televised sport in pubs.
