DConcept-One
first electric scooter protector of the world
-
This project was the final project of university with the objective of protecting the users of electric scooters from accidents, a project never created before. The project was divided into 3 phases:
Phase 1 - Product analysis: An investigation was carried out on electric scooters and types of protections where we had to create a totally new design.
Phase 2 - Design and construction: The first protector for scooters in the world has been designed from scratch according to the needs of the studied users. A space has been created in which the user is protected from frontal and lateral blows by a shell made of ecological materials with interior and exterior padding, with multi-purpose functions such as a movable visor, folding the scooter or a bag to put objects and with adapted ergonomics to the average number of users who carry out these uses of transport.
Phase 3 - Functional Design Mock-up: In the last phase, the model was created on a 1:1 scale made of foam, methacrylate and a small strips of padding, painted and fully assembled with the components. The goal was to create a full vision of how it would look in real life in proportions and aesthetic.
