Problem Statement
As COVID-19 was still prevalent in 2021, my internship's objective was to help White Fox Scooters, an e-scooter startup, transition into a contact-free, wireless riding experience. At the time, their e-scooters had to be manually charged, so I designed an adaptor that enabled wireless charging, while also locking the scooter into a dock.
Approach
In order to accomplish this, I had to design an adaptor that:
Retrofit onto an existing scooter stem
Safely housed a PCB with wireless charging Pogo pin connectors
Locked the scooter into the new docking stations
Featured a bike lock for customers to lock the scooters wherever they pleased
