Fig. 01. First iteration — scanner and controller housing explored against three shortlisted components.Fig. 02. Second iteration — cased scanner narrowed to two items, with quick foam mock-ups for lab ergonomics tests.Fig. 03. Foam mock-ups handled at the gate to check reach, angle and hand position before any metal was cut.Fig. 04. Fabrication route: water jet cutting and bolt-head-to-plate weld, tested on the real gate panels.Fig. 05. One vacuum-cast prototype built to fit multiple scanner options for plug and play — sheet metal clamps, LED strip holder, acrylic sheet for controller invisibility.Fig. 06. The finished gate in service. The scanner reads as original equipment.Fig. 07. A commuter scanning at the gate — the interaction the whole project was built around.Fig. 01. Housing tooling and the moulded batch that came off it.Fig. 02. Inside the unit — scanner, controller and LED indicators packaged behind one face.Fig. 03. Corner detail where the reader meets the gate shell.Fig. 04. Bench build and the installed unit on the concourse, in Ridlr and Ola livery.Fig. 01. Interaction study — where the ticket is presented and what the commuter sees while doing it.Fig. 02. Bench prototypes running the production electronics.Fig. 03. Mock-up handled against the gate to check the presentation height.Fig. 01. The arithmetic of the study — 2-in-1 flap gates at 380 mm, laid out across a 5.4 metre run.Fig. 02. Form variants tested in a row so the change in rhythm is visible at station scale.Fig. 01. Parallel products and interaction references — passbook printer, soda dispenser, gaming machine, weighing machine, speedometer, power switch, TV remote, battery indicator, simple phone, Aadhaar application.Fig. 02. The wall-mounted reference in use — everything the user needs held in one plane.Fig. 03. Standing kiosks drawn closer to the passbook machine interaction people already know.Fig. 04. Gold weight indicator — digital weighing machine against a counter weighing machine.Fig. 05. Aadhaar application study: two monitors, biometric scanner, operator side, chair.Fig. 06. Seated interaction with everything set into the wall.Fig. 07. Wall-set unit in Rupeek livery.Fig. 08. Free-standing concepts explored against the same process.Fig. 09. The gold biscuit look — the machine reading as the thing it dispenses value against.Fig. 10. General arrangement: 1000 mm wide, 400 mm deep, 200 mm high, screen at 30 degrees.Fig. 11. Tray and glass broken out of the assembly.Fig. 12. Storyboard — the user gets to KYC, then wonders where the scanner is. The critique that moved the layout.Fig. 13. Desk-mounted variant in situ.Fig. 14. User test against the wall-mounted prototype.Fig. 15. The built prototype, in use.Fig. 01. Early concept block — the hatchback thinking that preceded the pivot.Fig. 02. Package sketches working out the cargo proportions.Fig. 03. Space frame in CAD, with the leaf spring suspension called out.Fig. 04. Manufacturing-led form after the tooling decision.Fig. 05. Line-up study across the range.Fig. 06. The first prototype going together at a local fabricator with a Chinese powertrain.Fig. 07. Rolling chassis on the road outside the shed.Fig. 08. Sheet metal folded by hand — the metal origami moment that changed how the vehicle was drawn.Fig. 09. First proto was L3. The next was L5 — larger, with independent suspensions and Indian powertrains.Fig. 10. Cabin panel out of the press.Fig. 11. Tooling for the pressed parts.Fig. 12. Pilot batch in the assembly bay.Fig. 13. Loaded and driven — the cargo bed doing its job.Fig. 14. On the road in traffic.Fig. 15. Cab in bare metal before paint.Fig. 16. Pilot vehicle in the yard.Fig. 17. Night testing.Fig. 18. Dashboard sketches, working the switch layout and instrument aperture.Fig. 19. Dashboard sheet metal mock-up before the FRP prototype.Fig. 20. Speedometer 3D print mock-up — aluminium casing, vacuum-cast prototype.Fig. 21. The instrument cluster in hand.Fig. 22. Dashboard fitted in the cab.Fig. 23. Headlight housing drawn for the FRP mould.Fig. 24. 3D printing plus sheet metal mock-up used to create the FRP mould.Fig. 25. Moulded housing with the Navya lettering.Fig. 26. The finished front end on the vehicle.Fig. 27. Fixturing for repeatable assembly.Fig. 28. Assembly movement through the line.Fig. 29. Bodies through ED coat.Fig. 30. Painted and complete.Fig. 31. Assembly line at the factory.Fig. 32. Finished vehicles, ready to leave.
