project goal
Familiarize people with hydrogen mobility and its infrastructure, thereby increasing demand for Hyundai's hydrogen-based EV vehicle ecosystem.
final outcome
1.Mobile Station
Increase accessibility for people on a daily basis. For the mobile station, we used the existing Hyundai electric bus and engineered it based on that model.
2.Integration with Personal Mobility (PM)
The mobile station offers rental and charging services for last mile mobility. By consistently delivering positive interactions, it may increase awareness and recognition of the ecosystem.










SCENARIO
User Scenario Simulation Test - Low Fidelity Prototype

Conducted a 1:1 scale simulation of the Hyundai ELEC City Bus using a low-fidelity prototype.

This simulation aims to understand how users interact inside the bus in terms of scale and usability.

The goal was to validate our concept of integrating a charging system into the existing Hyundai bus without causing discomfort during movement inside, while also facilitating the charging of personal mobility devices.



User Scenario Simulation Test - VR Simulation
Due to limited access to the Hyundai ELEC City Bus, we conducted a VR simulation to validate scalability using the 3D modeling and rendering designed by the vehicle designer.

APP Design
App UI Design

Originally designed in Korean (left) as part of the Hyundai project and reviewed by C-level executives. The English version (right) was personally translated for portfolio purposes only.

Original(KOR) “Majung”
Translated(ENG) “Greeting”

Majung App offers integrated transportation services, from PM (personal mobility) to hydrogen mobile stations. Users can easily access information and utilize these two mobility options through the app.


App Flow - Mobile Station

     

STEP 1

This is the first screen users will see, showing a map of the current location. 
The top section allows users to change their location and settings. At the bottom, there are tabs to switch between the mobile station and PM pages.


STEP 2
Station Information

By tapping on the left bottom "Station" tab, users can view information about nearby operating Majung stations. The user can then choose which station to use.


STEP 3
Selecting a Station

For example, if Majung 01 is selected, users can see the number of available charging PMs and seat availability at that station.


App Flow - PM Search and Connection 




STEP 1
PM Page

When no PM is connected,  the "Search" tab appears,  and previously used PMs are shown at the bottom.


STEP 2
Renting a PM

Users can rent a PM by using the app's recognition feature at a mobile station, and once the PM is connected, a confirmation window will appear on the app.


STEP 3
While Using PM

When a PM is connected and in use, users can check the amount to be paid, travel distance, and remaining battery.

STEP 4
Returning PM

After using the PM, users can return it to a mobile station. A confirmation window will appear, showing the total amount to be paid. This completes the Majung service experience.
