Well, have you had enough water today?
An assistance system for truck drivers, supporting them in their daily tasks like parking searches or tracking driving and rest times.
The Idea
TuckMate provides support to truck drivers in their daily tasks and ensures secure control of the system.
The primary objectives include assistance with routine tasks, support in finding parking spaces, and improved overview of one's driving and rest times. The system comprises a portable touch tablet, which can be controlled during the journey through controls on the armrest of the driver's seat.
How truckmate supports its users
TruckMate is an assistance system for long-distance drivers that accompanies them throughout their day-to-day work. The primary goals are to provide support with routine tasks.
The tap water is filtered for the further treatment
The water is tempered between icy-cold and boiling
Carbonation as strong as you want, from still to bubbly to strong sparkling
Minerals are adjusted to your individual body values and needs

Checklists
The departure check must be carried out before the start of each journey. With TruckMate, drivers are guided through this process and the logistics company receives the necessary information about their vehicle.
TapCartridges
Mineral, vitamin and flavor cartridges which are sent to tapin and refilled
SafetyLock
Prevents the uncontrolled dispensing of hot water and must be unlocked
TapDisplay

The result of this project was, among other things, this video which visualizes the use by Henrik and Amira.
With the 3d simulation below we were able to bring the concept to life and get a glimpse of the future.
