New Taipei City, March 6, 2024 – Qbic Technology has once again distinguished itself, clinching the prestigious iF Design Award 2024 amidst nearly 11,000 innovative submissions from 72 countries, all competing for this distinguished symbol of excellence.
The TD-0360 BookBuddy, celebrated for its innovative contactless design, stood out to a jury of 132 global experts, clinching the award for its pioneering approach. This achievement upholds the award-winning tradition established by its predecessor, the TD-0350, which received the iF Design Award in 2019.
“Securing the iF Design Award for the fourth time is a profound affirmation of Qbic Technology’s sustained leadership in design and innovation,” remarked Primo Shao, CEO of Qbic Technology. “This honor not only acknowledges our team’s dedication but also highlights our significant influence within the industry.

The process of securing a desk is simplified to a single touch or tap on the panel via a smartphone, enhanced by its Apple Wallet compatibility, simplifying the workspace reservation process.
BookBuddy is equipped with a state-of-the-art touchscreen panel that impresses with a brilliant 16.7 million color display and On-Cell technology. This innovation not only offers unmatched display clarity but also significantly improves touch responsiveness, setting BookBuddy apart from competing desk booking panels.
