#vugivingday #thewondry #studentinnovation #engineering #anchordown… | the Wond'ryAaron Gothard and his senior design team created a fully adjustable mock interior, known as a "buck", that can quickly adapt from sedan to SUV to compact pickup truck interiors, streamlining Nissan’s vehicle development and market research process. The full team consisted of: Aaron Gothard, Nicole Yeh, Elijah Holland, David Guiracocha, and Nick Diaz. Traditionally, each vehicle iteration requires its own dedicated mock interior. But Aaron's team has designed one adaptable buck that can represent multiple vehicle styles seamlessly, saving resources and accelerating innovation.
