Aurovisual Communication in Autonomous Vehicles (Developmental Phase 4)

With the exterior design of AV2 being satisfactory, feedback was given that the interior of AV2 was not inviting enough, and it did not exuberate enough character. As a result, I looked to retro vehicles' seats for inspiration as these large cushy seats were inviting, homely, and came in cheerful colors which created the carefree feeling we wanted for the speculative AI driven AV. At this stage, window UI/UX elements which the passenger can interact with for the various vehicular functions were also looked into.
