Abstract

This paper shows an experimental simulation system that simulates the experience of social cycling in the process of design research. The system has been used in two iterative studies to evaluate different design concepts related to cycling and social interaction. We introduce the build and implementation of the simulation system and discuss the role of an experimental prototype in design research.
