Zugbox Ltd is a container rental company and has developed a net zero engineering solution for rail based container logistics for last mile delivery which can reduce CO2E by 82% and improve the efficiency of net zero delivery vehicle fleets. It has partnered with its pilot customer Russell Logistics to work with a design team to explore optimising its innovative net zero design.Our idea is highly innovative because:* Zugboxes are unique in that they can be transferred from rail freight to small vehicles (3.5t upwards).* Zugboxes provide the first true door-to-door delivery system, transferring seamlessly to smaller vehicles for last mile delivery.* Zugboxes integrate with sustainable delivery alternatives including robots, bicycle couriers and on-foot delivery.We are proposing to use this project to improve our engineering design using the three step Human Centred Design (HCD) process (Inspiration, Ideation & Implementation).We want to use this project to explore the following:* Design and innovation opportunities in how the containers will be used in their environments - eg how they are loaded and unloaded and how the design process can improve this;* How the containers interface with other modes of transport - eg passenger stations; cargo bikes;* The design lifecycle of our product and how this can be optimised to improve our environmental footprint and extend product life beyond the primary design function.The design team includes leading design consultants and CGI & 3d modellers.Project outputs will consist:* Optimised design concepts for applicationsLifecycle analysis and design optimisation Design mockups

Zugbox有限公司是一家集装箱租赁公司，开发了基于铁路的最后一英里交付集装箱物流净零工程解决方案，可以减少82%的二氧化碳排放，提高净零交付车队的效率。它已经与其试点客户罗素物流公司合作，与一个设计团队合作，探索优化其创新的净零设计。我们的想法非常创新，因为：*Zugbox是独一无二的，因为它们可以从铁路货运转移到小型车辆(3.5吨以上)。*Zugbox提供了第一个真正的门到门运输系统，无缝地转移到较小的车辆进行最后一英里的交付。*Zugbox与可持续的交付替代方案集成在一起，包括机器人、自行车快递员和步行递送。我们建议使用三步人本设计(HCD)过程来改进我们的工程设计(灵感，构思和实施)。我们希望利用这个项目来探索以下几个方面：*集装箱将如何在其环境中使用的设计和创新机会-例如如何装卸以及设计过程如何改进这一点；*集装箱如何与其他运输方式对接--如客运站；货运自行车；*我们产品的设计生命周期，以及如何优化这一生命周期，以改善我们的环境足迹并延长产品寿命，使之超越主要的设计功能。设计团队包括领先的设计顾问和CGI&3D模型。项目输出将包括：*针对应用程序的优化设计概念生命周期分析和设计优化设计样机
