For the Rive × Contra Vehicle HMI challenge, I designed a retro-futurist cockpit UI inspired by a Dragon Ball toy plane and real aviation instruments. The project features three screens designed and built entirely in Rive, a magnetic compass, a battery gauge with gyroscope indicator, and a main dashboard... all vector-based, lightweight, and driven by data binding with converters. The loading screen planet is procedurally generated with scripting. Still a work in progress, I'll continue to work on this after the challenge (warning screens, a retro-futurist media center, and more…). I had a lot of fun on this :) 🚀

Hi, this is my submission for the Rive Vehicle HMI Challenge.

This project is called “NeuroDrive AI Cockpit” — a smart, adaptive dashboard designed for next-generation vehicles.

The interface includes a dynamic speedometer, navigation system, and real-time alerts.

I’ve implemented interactive driving modes like Eco, Sport, and Autopilot with smooth animated transitions using Rive state machines.

There’s also an AI assistant that provides contextual insights such as traffic updates and fuel alerts.

The entire experience is designed to be responsive, intuitive, and visually engaging.

Built entirely using Rive with a focus on motion design and interactivity.

Thank you!

I studied the world’s best mobile patterns on Mobbin. From health rings to social matching, to build a research-backed moodboard. I was inspired by apps like Greg, Apple Health, Shop and Bumble. I translated these high-end UX behaviors into a cohesive design system that prioritizes clarity and local trust.

Then I jumped with all my ideas into Figma Make. Here it comes Pottr, a fusion between quantified plant health with a social graph. It includes plant care tracking but it doesn't stop there. It’s an ecosystem where you match with neighbors based on shared plants, trade seeds or tools, and request community care when you travel. It’s a premium, hyperlocal take on sustainability with custom branding and a neighborhood "open-world" map.
