We did a thing. @harish22890 and I spoke at @figma Config yesterday. The talk “Scooter, screen and duct-tape: from hack to habit” is our reflection through designing a lot of firsts. From designing a touchscreen dashboard to a voice assistant on a scooter, our unique world made us rethink our processes and tools from scratch. If you missed catching it live, do check out the link. It’s an honest snapshot of how we think about experience design at Ather. Honestly, we haven’t done a great job of sharing our design stories outside. This was our first attempt at that. What a start it was. You’ll be seeing more of this from us. That’s a promise. youtu.be/Zn3XYOV4dUo?si…

Some fun peak into the daily design life at @atherenergy coming soon

But it’s crazy to me that India is a country where we need to solve for “person wants to watch cricket match while doing another high attention task”.

Animations and experience design for bumpy roads finder for this year’s Ather Community Day. Always fun to break out of brand language and create something different.

Some proximity expression based goodness. Only one NULL was key framed in this entire video (🤯). Maybe it’s time to learn Javascript after all 🤪 Software: After Effects

Forcing myself to make new animations every other day this March ( would have done it everyday but we all know where the real money comes from ) Animation inspiration from @yonsankm

@goelaakash79 Wohoo, so proud of you @goelaakash79 !!

2. Rizta’s website, our new line of electric scooters. This project literally taught me a lots of things, like a lot! And, I’m glad that it’s finally live at atherenergy.com/rizta Excited to see how the journey unfolds from here… n/n.

Okay, so apart from posting random frames here, I am a product designer, and last month I completed my 1 year with @atherenergy Coming from a lean team at Spenny to a company of more than 2500 employees was definitely overwhelming at first. 1/n…

@Manaschandran @pranavsinghania Hey Manas, the UI is different only because it’s made specifically for Rizta keeping the family theme in mind along with the design language of the scooter.

@magixturtl @pranavsinghania Hi is it because the HW of 450x not capable enough to go for this UI ?

It’s been a crazy last few days here at Ather. Last year we started working on a project to reimagine the non-touch dashboard experience for our first family scooter Ather Rizta and it’s finally out.

@willianmatiola We found that the title text is fairly readable in most outdoor conditions. The goal in general has been to ensure maximum contrast for critical information pieces while riding.

@magixturtl How do the titles with the soft gray look on a sunny day? Is it possible to see the text? Does the screen have an anti-reflex display?

@pranavsinghania Hey @pranavsinghania the features shown are all part of Atherstack 6, however the UI is specifically crafted for Ather Rizta

@magixturtl Do these come to the 450 series with Atherstack 6?

@gokul_i Thanks a lot!

@magixturtl Looks great!

@WeekendVisuals Thanks @WeekendVisuals . It has been a lot of fun indeed. We do different levels of testing during the design process, from in-house built rigs at early stages of design to directly onto the vehicle HMI at later stages thanks to our engineering team.

@magixturtl Nice work and sounds like a cool project to work on. How does your work look a like? Can you actually test in product?

The initial impression are out and the response has been amazing. All of this wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing HMI design team behind this. From left: @pixel_adi, Harish Kumar, @vedants__ , Prafulla GS and yours truly.

A stark departure from 450X’s performance oriented sporty UI, Rizta sports a more minimal and super approachable interface ensuring the core dashboard experiences remains the same while simplifying a lot of other things.

...and that's a wrap!!!
