IDEATION
Optimising for guided vehicles & AGV's
We analyzed the market for autonomous vehicles thoroughly to improve user experience. This helped us achieve the current outer design to make it more user-friendly.
We placed critical features in optimal locations. Using artificial intelligence design tools, we also brainstormed new ways to open the door. We considered user challenges and created practical, aesthetically pleasing solutions.
Upon analyzing the existing product, we conducted a thorough breakdown to comprehend its functionality and identify areas for improvement. Our focus centered on enhancing the human control through softer and more user-friendly outer body aesthetics.
It is ergonomic to position the screen and kill switch for easy and effective use. This ensured that we placed important features in the best way possible. This included ensuring that the screen and kill switch were easily accessible. We wanted to make using these features as convenient as possible.
We came up with new ways to open and close doors to make them work better and help users do what they do best. Visual mood boards and themes helped us come up with ideas for our designs. These visual aids served as inspiration and reference points, aiding in the exploration of various design concepts.
By gaining insights into the environmental factors influencing user interaction, we were better equipped to tailor our design solutions to address these challenges effectively. We focused on users to make sure our design changes looked good and worked well, improving the user experience.

Designing mood boards for autonomous robot design
In the ideation phase, we creatively explored using mood boards and themes, focusing on sheet metal's properties. We aimed to balance aesthetics and functionality, ensuring durability and integration with the door mechanism.
During the ideation phase, we embarked on a creative journey fuelled by mood boards, themes, and diverse sources of inspiration to unlock the full potential of our design concepts. With the unique challenge of working within the confines of sheet metal construction, we explored innovative approaches to elevate the product's form and functionality.
Our brainstorming sessions revolved around leveraging the inherent properties of sheet metal to enhance the product's visual appeal and structural integrity. We delved into the realm of Japanese origami, contemplating how folding techniques could be adapted to create intriguing geometric patterns and dynamic shapes that would captivate users.
Exploration extended to joineries, where we sought to devise solutions that seamlessly integrated with the sheet metal framework. Inspired by the elegance of rolling shutters and blind cover mechanisms, we envisioned mechanisms that not only provided practical benefits but also added a touch of sophistication to the product's design.
Attention to detail was important as we considered the interplay between aesthetics and functionality. Integrating patterns into the sheet metal body emerged as a promising avenue for enhancing visual interest while maintaining structural integrity. However, we remained mindful of the need to balance artistic expression with practical considerations, ensuring that the design elements contributed meaningfully to the overall user experience.
Throughout this iterative process, the strength and durability of the sheet metal remained a focal point, guiding our decisions to ensure longevity and reliability. Every design element was meticulously evaluated to ensure seamless integration with the door interaction mechanism, emphasising a holistic approach to product development.
