Problem 

Existing autonomous vehicle (AV)  services don't do a thorough job of addressing the needs of users with mobility challenges, creating uncomfortable experiences.

Insights 

We discovered that older adults with physical limitations often find current ride service technologies confusing, inaccessible, and emotionally unsupportive. True accessibility requires not only physical accommodation, but also intuitive and reassuring design.

Solution 

BUNI reimagines autonomous rides for people with mobility challenges, starting with a simple phone call to eliminate tech barriers. This introduces travelers to their AI companion Buni, who supports them throughout the journey.
