ENGINEERING DESIGN SHOW | PREVIEW
EDS 2019: INNOVATI Taking place in October, EDS 2019 will
introduce many new and exciting factors,
but the fundamental focus on engineering
200 design remains the same. EXHIBITORS
content channel online and at
More than 4,000 visitors
are expected to attend
this year’s Engineering
Design Show, which takes
place at the Ericsson Exhibition
Hall, Ricoh Arena, Coventry on the
16th and 17th October.
As ever, they will be drawn to the
event by its unique focus on design
engineers and what they need.
This is because The Engineering
Design Show is the UK’s only event
entirely dedicated to engineering,
electronics and embedded design.
The show provides the ideal
environment for design engineers
to bene t from direct access to
the latest products, services and
innovations available to the sector.
Now in its eighth year, the show
is able to achieve this because
of the sheer level and variety of
content it provides. This comes
not only in the form of the more
than 200 exhibitors, but also in the
top-level conference programme,
which will see 27 speakers from
across industry and academia
addressing key topics and
technologies. In addition, there will
be a programme of 33 practical
workshops on the exhibition oor
offering hands-on, practical advice
on everyday design issues.
But while it has been consistent
in delivering high-quality content
since its launch in 2012, the
Engineering Design Show has
never stood still, continuing to
innovate and provide something
new every year.
In 2018 that innovation came
in the form of EDS TV, an exciting
way for exhibitors to get your
brand noticed at the UK’s leading
engineering, electronics and
embedded design event. EDS
TV delivers an up to the minute
experience by creating a live
27+ CONFERENCES
33+ WORKSHOPS
This interactive space will
include demonstrations of robotics
from Applied Automation and
MakerBot plus many more.
The Future Zone is also returning
for 2019. Visitors will be able
to discover how the latest VR
technology from RiVR is changing
the way humans learn and try it for
themselves. RiVR can capture
any location and recreate it in
photorealistic virtual reality,
allowing users to interact with
and experience these worlds,
enhancing the way humans
learn.
In addition to the feature
stands, the organisers are
introducing an easy to
use one-to-one meeting
tool. Visitors, exhibitors
and speakers will be able
to pre-book meetings
the venue. It’s the ultimate way
to increase show buzz, enhance
engagement with visitors and
reach a much wider audience. It
will be back at the 2019 show.
This year, there is a new way to
interact with the show’s content
by using the new Augmented
Reality function. The Engineering
Design Show strives to bring
you advanced technologies and
provide design engineers direct
access to the latest products,
services and innovations.
The digital content will enable
you to review the best bits of
the 2018 show and take a look
forward to some of the exciting
new features planned for 2019.
The app promises an immersive
and interactive experience, as
well as a bit of fun, and we’d love
to get your feedback on it. Simply

and scan page 44 in this issue of
Eureka! to launch the content

2019.
In addition, the new
Robotics Innovation
Hub will showcase the
very latest in robotics
design and technology
from award-winning
companies and
innovative start-ups.
