This study explores the application of the Lean Inception methodology in developing “EcoRider: Green Adventure,” an educational game aimed at enhancing motorcycle safety and promoting environmental awareness. Funded by the A-MoVeR project under the European Recovery and Resilience Facility, the game educates players on advanced safety technologies such as radars, cameras, LiDAR, and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. Players navigate complex urban scenarios, learning to manage potential hazards and promoting ecofriendly urban mobility. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research evaluates the effectiveness of integrating these technologies into the game’s design and gameplay. The game features multiple levels with increasing difficulty, requiring players to strategically place sensors and use AI models to overcome challenges. The application of the Lean Inception methodology has been essential in aligning the development team’s efforts, ensuring a cohesive approach to delivering a minimum viable product that satisfies both educational and technological objectives. Future work will be on refining the game, expanding its scope and exploring additional applications in the wider context of sustainable and safe mobility.

摘要

This study explores the application of the Lean Inception methodology in developing “EcoRider: Green Adventure,” an educational game aimed at enhancing motorcycle safety and promoting environmental awareness. Funded by the A-MoVeR project under the European Recovery and Resilience Facility, the game educates players on advanced safety technologies such as radars, cameras, LiDAR, and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. Players navigate complex urban scenarios, learning to manage potential hazards and promoting ecofriendly urban mobility. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research evaluates the effectiveness of integrating these technologies into the game’s design and gameplay. The game features multiple levels with increasing difficulty, requiring players to strategically place sensors and use AI models to overcome challenges. The application of the Lean Inception methodology has been essential in aligning the development team’s efforts, ensuring a cohesive approach to delivering a minimum viable product that satisfies both educational and technological objectives. Future work will be on refining the game, expanding its scope and exploring additional applications in the wider context of sustainable and safe mobility.
