Installation timeline
A SUNSEEKER proof of concept was installed in Victoriapark during Dutch Design Week 2020 and later removed for redevelopment, according to Eindhoven Design District. The municipality’s 6 July 2026 update scheduled new foundations for Q3, followed by masts and installation. Completion and current operation have not been verified.
