Abstract
In the context of Economy instability, ageing society the automotive sector is characterized by a strong innovation due to new driving models, electrification, car digitalization, and the technology of autonomous driving. While this innovation comes with many interesting opportunities it also increases the chance of exclusion for fragile category like elderly people. The Design Research with the Human Centered Design and Co-design approaches is trying to innovate this sector not only with services that meet the elderly mobility needs but it is also playing a leading role in transforming the current mobility contest into a more equitable and inclusive transport system. Three significant case study are here presented with a special focus on the methodology used and common features are evaluated. Finally, it is presented the current and forecasted trajectory of the Human design research methodology with Co-design tool as leading factor for a design by people.
