The EQS MBUX is Mercedes-Benz's cutting-edge infotainment system. My project focused on redesign the traditional car display using augmented reality technology to improve real-time information delivery, by integrating interactive, AR-enhanced visuals directly into the vehicle’s field of view.
The Problem
We are Redesigning the Mercedes Men’s EQS MBUX system  to enhance user experience by making the interface more intuitive and responsive. This redesign focuses on streamlining interactions, reducing cognitive load, and improving personalization tailored to individual driving habits and preferences.
