Backpack Scooter

I designed and built a compact foldable electric scooter from the ground up, combining mechanical design, electronics integration, component sourcing, and full system assembly into a lightweight mobility prototype. The goal was to create an ultra-portable scooter that could balance real-world usability with a small enough form factor to be carried easily when not in use.

The scooter weighs under 10 pounds and is designed around a foldable frame for backpack-friendly portability. I modeled the mechanical components, selected and integrated the electrical system, sourced the required parts, and assembled the full prototype. Despite its compact size, the scooter achieves an estimated 10-mile range and a top speed of 15 mph, making it suitable for short urban commutes and last-mile transportation.

This project demonstrates my ability to take a physical product from concept to working prototype, covering CAD design, mechanical packaging, electrical integration, part selection, fabrication, assembly, and system-level testing.
