About the project

From manual
to mobile.

TRAXTER is an academic team project based on a real operational need: turning a 100+ page Can-Am Traxter HD9 manual into an interactive mobile guide. The challenge was to make dense technical information easier to find and understand without losing necessary detail. We reorganized the content around the vehicle itself, using visual exploration, contextual explanations and progressive disclosure for quick field reference.

Technical guidance, redesigned for mobile.

Instead of reproducing the manual page by page, we reorganized the content around the vehicle and the actions users need to understand.
