An Information Design Class @ Princeton University
The last class of this spring semester was last week. Students presented their final stories over Zoom for the first time. This was an unusual format for the class as delivery is an important part of this project, but it worked well. Each student delivered a 6-minute story to explain a topic of their choice …

Iterating through the design, I have arrived at this current version. More information has been included on the differential steering mechanism in support of the efficiency of turning mechanical problems in conventional cars into software/electrical ones in electrical vehicles. By shifting the focus of my design into differentiating electrical and gasoline powered cars I hope …
