Interactive, full-scale model of an electric vehicle, from concept to reality in 30 days
Francisco Piqueras
We are very proud to tell you about one of the biggest challenges we have had this year: the interactive model of a real-scale electric vehicle. This project has been an incredible adventure from its conception to its completion.
From the initial idea to having the model ready in just 30 days, our team overcame many challenges. Every obstacle overcome makes us very proud of the professionals who are part of IA Manufacturing today.. Their dedication and effort have been fundamental to achieving this accomplishment.

What is an interactive model?
A interactive model It is a physical model that incorporates interactive elements designed to demonstrate how certain systems or technologies work.
In this case, the model includes energy storage systems, electric powertrains, and hydrogen fuel cells, all on display. This allows users to interact with them to better understand their operation and benefits.
Importance in the current context of technology and project presentation
In an era where visualization and direct interaction are key to education and technical understanding, Our full-scale interactive model offers a significant advantage.
It allows students, professionals and the public Explore and learn about advanced technologies in an accessible way and engaging. This advanced educational tool is essential for showcasing the innovations developed by MUBIL's laboratories.

Main features of our interactive model
Our full-scale interactive model It is a pioneering example. how technology and interactivity can merge to improve education and understanding of complex systems.
Let's take a closer look at the technical features and tools included in this innovative model.
Interactivity and applied technology
The MUBIL model not only faithfully reproduces the dimensions and structure of a real vehicle, but also integrates interactive systems that They facilitate a dynamic educational experience..
Users can interact directly with the systems of energy storage, the electric powertrain, and the hydrogen fuel cell, gaining visual and tactile insights into how these components work together in a real vehicle using three touchscreens that are connected to the interactive system.
Technical details and integrated tools
Energy Storage Systems:
Schematic representation of battery cells, modules, and management systems. Interactive display that allows visitors to see and understand the energy storage and distribution process within a vehicle.
Electric Powertrain:
It includes components such as the electric motor, inverter, and transmission. Visitors can explore how these elements work together to power the vehicle, providing a clear understanding of the inner workings of an electric vehicle.
Fuel Cell (Hydrogen Fuel Cell):
Details on hydrogen-to-electricity conversion. Interactive explanation of the advantages and operation of this technology in the context of sustainable mobility.
Each of these systems is designed to avoid spatial incompatibilities, ensuring a clear and educational presentation of each technology without compromising the visibility of the other components.
Benefits of using an interactive model in various sectors
The implementation of our full-scale interactive model with advanced technology offers a wide range of benefits in various fields. Thanks to its ability to to demonstrate visually and interactively how complex systems work of these vehicle propulsion systems.
Here we explore how different sectors can take advantage of this educational and demonstrative tool.
Education
This interactive model serves as a very valuable teaching resource. It helps engineering, technology, and design students understand advanced concepts of electric vehicles and alternative energy systems.
Direct interaction with the model through touchscreens allows students manipulate and observe in real time the reactions of the systems, which significantly improves learning and knowledge retention.
Exhibitions and fairs
At exhibitions and fairs, the model it becomes an attractive centerpiece that can educate and inspire visitors about sustainable mobility technologies.
Touchscreens offer an engaging experience that is both educational and entertaining, attracting a wider audience and facilitating dissemination of the technology we are presenting.

Collaboration and trust in the development process
From the outset, Mubil and Bilbao Design Hub played key roles as collaborators on this project. These organizations not only trusted our technical and creative judgment, but also They maintained their commitment and support despite the uncertainties inherent in the rapid development process.
The inability to show reliable results until the final assembly could have been a major obstacle. However, the trust that Mubil and Bilbao Design Hub placed in our team allowed us to move forward with the project. without unnecessary delays, optimizing the use of time and available resources.
Challenges Overcome
Facing the challenge of completing the entire process in just one month demonstrated the effectiveness of our planning and the adaptability of all the teams involved.
This experience not only strengthened the relationship between the parties but also reinforced our reputation as leaders capable of delivering complex projects under pressure.
Thanks to the Teams
We would like to extend our special thanks to the teams at Mubil and Bilbao Design Hub for their trust and collaboration. Their willingness to work closely with us and their belief in our vision were fundamental to carrying out this innovative project. to set a precedent in the presentation of interactive technologies.
This project not only demonstrated our ability to handle logistical and technical challenges, but also underscored the importance of collaboration and mutual trust in carrying out technological innovations significant.
Here is a video recorded and edited by Mubil of the stand and the interactive model, developed by Bilbao Design Hub and IA Manufacturing.
