MOBILITY BOX: A DESIGN RESEARCH METHODOLOGY TO EXAMINE PEOPLE'S NEEDS IN RELATION TO AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE DESIGNS AND MOBILITY BUSINESS MODEL

Abstract

AbstractThe future focus of research in the automotive sector will be on automation and data-driven technologies. These technologies provide new services and values to customers, owners and other stakeholders in mobility. We propose a wizard-of-oz like method to evaluate future user needs and redesign the current approach of vehicle development. The mobility box provides a modular and extendable framework to merge user centred design with vehicle data acquisition. This enables the design of services and properties for unknown mobility concepts.
