VOYAGE
A steering wheel/dashboard concept that embraces the future of autonomy and modern technology to keep drivers involved and safe.
Area of Opportunity
Interactive screens and distracted driving are at an all time high. Distracted driving is causing more accidents each year.
Drivers are inconvienced by the size of screens in the interior space. Traditional dials/components are being implemented again for their practicality.
VOYAGE is a steering wheel/dashboard concept that utilizes less screens and classic car individuality/design language to promote safer driving.

MATT, 54
CAR ENTHUSIAST
“Having owned newer and older cars, I prefer having modern technology in vehicles. I would still enjoy traditional controls and not as many screens.”
USER NEEDS
SAFETY
New camera systems and sensors can be implemented in cars that project a view of your surroundings and a HUD. This will allow users to be on screens and phones less, resulting in more responsible drivers.
