Designing AI-Driven Daily Space Life Solutions
The ENTA Student Commission is thrilled to invite industrial design students to participate in a unique and engaging competition that will showcase their ability to learn and apply AI tools in the design process. This competition is your chance to envision a thriving future in space and design products that will make life there not just possible, but enriching.

First Prize: Zehra Ece Yılmaz
Project: ELYSIUM
Elysium is a self-managing soilless agricultural greenhouse that meets the food needs of spaceships that make long interplanetary family journeys by producing instead of storing. This high-tech greenhouse meets the water needs of plants in the most efficient way thanks to its drip irrigation system. The plant tracking camera system constantly monitors the growth process of plants and instantly detects and solves possible problems. PLC software and sensors automatically control the entire system, provide ideal temperature conditions with heating systems, help plants photosynthesize with UV lighting and always keep the indoor air fresh with ventilation systems. In this way, a family can produce and consume fresh and healthy foods during long space journeys, get rid of the need to stock up on food and always have the advantage of accessing fresh products. Thanks to the system that opens from the side, easy access is provided to the spraying, heating and ventilation systems inside, so the user can easily perform system checks. This efficiency provided by Elysium both increases the quality of life and enables sustainable food production during long-term space missions. The control screen on the glass surface of the greenhouse makes it possible to manage all these systems from a central point. By making adjustments according to the living conditions of the product to be grown, the product can be grown as it is on Earth. In addition, thanks to the camera integrated into the glass, it is possible to identify unknown seeds discovered on other planets and ensure that these seeds grow in suitable conditions.

Second Prize: Biltan Özdaş
Project: FUEL-X
FUEL-X is an innovative 3D printing unit designed to optimize astronauts’ nutritional needs in space. Using artificial intelligence and advanced sensors, it analyzes eye and skin data and creates personalized nutritional blends. This ensures that astronauts receive all the vitamins and minerals their bodies require.
AI determines nutritional needs with real-time health data and fills them into squeezable packages. Easy and Hygienic Use: Provides hygiene with touchless operation and minimizes user interaction. FUEL-X ensures that astronauts receive the necessary nutrients to maintain their health during long-term missions. Thanks to its innovative and hygienic design, it improves the quality of life in space and optimizes astronauts' performance. This project takes an important step towards a sustainable and healthy space life by providing advanced technology solutions to nutritional problems in space.

Third Prize: Ebru Kolo
Project: AstroChef3D
Bora works as a dessert chef in the new colony on Kepler-452. Different ingredients from Earth and limited resources create difficulties in dessert making. Bora's dreams are to create new and exotic flavors by revolutionizing gastronomy in space. He aims to gain universal fame by serving customers from all over space and to revolutionize the dessert world with unlimited creative opportunities. He needs the AstroChef 3d product to save time and focus more on his creativity. This machine allows him to produce exotic, creative desserts that he can design using various colored filaments and with artificial intelligence support. He can overcome the difficulties he encounters while working as a dessert chef on the planet he lives on with the AstroChef 3D Dessert Printing Machine. This machine allows him to be successful even in the harsh conditions of space. Thanks to the integration of artificial intelligence, it makes Bora's job easier and allows him to revolutionize the world of gastronomy.
