Engineering an Advanced Instrument Cluster for Next-Generation Electric Bikes

Project Overview

A prominent Two-Wheeler EV Company sought to differentiate its electric bikes by providing riders with an exceptional and connected experience through an advanced instrument cluster. Epsum Labs developed a state-of-the-art instrument cluster solution, seamlessly integrating essential riding metrics with advanced connectivity features, resulting in enhanced market appeal and rider satisfaction for the client.

Challenges

The client required an instrument cluster that went beyond basic displays to truly elevate the riding experience. Key challenges included:

• Presenting diverse riding information (speed, battery, distance) clearly and accessibly under various conditions.
• Seamlessly integrating navigation and entertainment features (GPS, Bluetooth) without compromising usability or safety.
• Developing a robust and intuitive interface that resonated with the modern EV rider.

Solution

Epsum Labs engineered a sophisticated Electric Bike Instrument Cluster centered around a high-resolution 7-inch LCD or TFT capacitive touch display. This provided riders with crystal-clear visibility of all essential metrics. The solution incorporated crucial safety features like low voltage warnings and offered seamless integration with GPS for turn-by-turn navigation. Bluetooth connectivity enabled riders to stream audio and manage calls, creating a fully connected and enjoyable journey. The design prioritized intuitive interaction and aesthetic appeal.

Results

The implementation of the new instrument cluster delivered significant value for the client:

• Enhanced Market Appeal: The advanced features and premium display significantly improved the attractiveness of the client's electric bikes in a competitive market.
• Superior Rider Experience: Riders benefited from clear information, integrated navigation, and seamless connectivity, leading to increased satisfaction and engagement.
• Technological Differentiation: The instrument cluster showcased the client's commitment to innovation and technology leadership in the two-wheeler EV sector.
