UX

mobility concept

An innovative vehicle that performs physical interactions with its users, inspired by sensitive robotics.

Objective

B.A. Thesis in the program Transportation Design at Pforzheim University

(Solo project)

Scope

Investigate how vehicles can be facilitated as the physical interface between passenger and technology. Explore how negative associations of autonomous driving can be anticipated through interactive and empathic design.

Role: Research, Concept, UX, 2D Design & 3D-Modelling, Visualization

Outcome

Extensive mobility concept, B.A. Thesis and physical prototype.

Graduated with honors

Outcome

UX shows how ride-hailing services can become tailored user experiences. Being shareable and in a compact size for 1 - 2 passengers, this concept is an appeal to rationalize urban mobility. Through performing the gesture of opening and closing, the vehicle becomes a versatile yet accessible interface between users and autonomous technology.
