Model Solution Wins Red Dot Design Award for Industrial AI Smart Goggles
Model Solution Co., Ltd., an affiliate of Hankook & Company Group, received a Red Dot Design Award 2026 in the product design category for industrial AI smart goggles currently in development.
The company is leading the first subproject of a support program run by the Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology (KEIT) under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. Model Solution handles ergonomic design, hardware development, and prototyping for the product.
The award recognizes how the company approached design as more than appearance. The goggles combine durability and practicality required for industrial equipment with comfort and intuitive usability.
For product development teams, the recognition reflects an integrated workflow spanning design through engineering to mass production-capabilities increasingly expected when developing hardware that serves both user needs and manufacturing constraints.
The award signals that design decisions rooted in real-world use cases and manufacturing feasibility can compete at the international level. This matters for teams balancing form, function, and production realities in their own projects.
For those developing similar products, AI for Product Development resources and AI Design Courses explore how to integrate these disciplines from concept through launch.
