Charity Zumbathon

Helen Moore one of our product designers, is not only enthralled and busy with her work here at Origin, but she is also a active mum of two away from the office, and still finds time to partake in a charity Zumbathon for Breast Cancer. Held at her local community hall, Helen and her fellow Zumba fanatics danced away for a solid three hours and raised well over £1000. Congratulations Helen!

4 seasons in one wedding day

 As mentioned last year, Origin’s Tom Kelsey proposed to his girlfriend Kathryn Bell – who did say yes!

We are pleased to announce that they got married this month. The day saw four seasons of weather presenting itself, even a flurry of snow! However this did not dampen the mood, and made for the perfect day.

Congratulations to you both!

Lights... High speed camera.... Slow motion action!

We have recently taken delivery of our own Photron High Speed Camera!

The opportunities to record at high speed frame rates / shutter speeds and then replay the images in super slow motion will prove invaluable when developing our innovative designs or assessing existing products for our customers.

Our camera records in 1024x1024 mono, providing enhanced light sensitivity compared to a colour camera, which will enhance our capabilities by allowing us to capture ultra clear images of the components, products or systems we are working on.  This will be beneficial to our customers in our design, research & development and testing roles.

We are visiting Ecobuild this week

This week the Ecobuild exhibition is upon us, opening from 20-22 March at London’s ExCel. With over 1,500 exhibitors, numerous attractions, demonstrations, great seminars and speakers, this is a fantastic opportunity to visit the world’s biggest event for sustainable design, construction and the built environment.

Two of our team members, Allen Pearson and Ed Murray will visit the exhibition this Thursday, looking forward to seeing the multitude of new products that will be launched at the show and visiting a number of exhibitors, seminars and demonstrations.
