The founders of start-up Scoozy saw an opportunity in the market for electric mobility. The mobility scooter has been driving electric for over 40 years, but has barely innovated. The start-up came up with an alternative for the current mobility scooter: Scoozy. A first working prototype was build in 2017 and tested with potential users. This led to many useful insights for the required improvements before Scoozy could go to the market.

One point of attention was the ergonomics of the seat. The seat is not adaptable to the diversity in the human body and thus not suitable for all users. This raised the question: How does this influence the comfort experience of the users and how can this be improved? These problems and questions were the base for this thesis assignment:

Design the seat of a mobility scooter by analysing current desires of the user and Scoozy and testing with models in order to improve the usability and ergonomic functionality of the seat.
