Engineers responsible for e-Scooter and e-Bike dashboard interface design are focusing on two critical aspects: more effectively integrating smartphones with the dashboard and making BMS (Battery Management System) data readily available.
e-Scooters and e-Bikes: Growing Demand and Better Engineering
According to information compiled by Statista on e-Scooters, experts predict that by 2026 the number of e-Scooter users is expected to reach 124.8 million worldwide, and the number of e-Bikes in use is also rapidly expanding worldwide.
While e-Scooters and e-Bikes, such as the one shown in Figure 1, remain a rapidly growing market, issues related to safety and BMS data still need to be better addressed — both of which depend heavily on dashboard design.
One of the main dangers of e-Scooters and e-Bikes lies in distractions, including interactions with cell phones and smartwatches that pull the user’s attention away from the road. This poses a danger both for the user and for those around them , as shown in Figure 2.
