Abstract :

This research project was developed in collaboration with the interactive center Mundo Fútbol, a company dedicated to educational entertainment through interactive sports exhibits. The main objective was the redesign of three of its most representative interactive exhibits: Compare Your Jump, Test Your Power, and Measure Your Speed. These exhibits, which are central to the visitor experience, showed significant deficiencies in material durability, ease of use, maintenance, and visual appeal due to prolonged use and a lack of technical updates for over a decade.

The research was structured based on the Design Thinking methodology, which allowed for a deep understanding of the needs of both the users and the Mundo Fútbol staff responsible for the transportation, installation, and operation of the exhibitions. The process was carried out in five stages: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test, supported by complementary tools such as the Ishikawa diagram, SCAMPER, and brainstorming. These tools helped facilitate the identification of root problems and the generation of innovative solutions.

Each exhibit was addressed individually, with a detailed analysis of its operation, structure, components, user interaction, and usage conditions. As part of the redesign, structural, functional, and aesthetic improvements were proposed and modeled using SolidWorks software, producing technical drawings, 3D models, and photorealistic renders of the new proposals. Additionally, structural simulations with static load analysis were conducted using materials such as ABS plastic and ASTM A-36 steel, in order to validate the strength, safety, and efficiency of each design.

The results demonstrate significant improvements in ergonomics, structural resistance, ease of maintenance, and user experience, while also reducing setup times and transportation requirements. This research not only provides technical solutions tailored to Mundo Fútbol’s needs but also establishes a replicable methodology for the development of modern, sustainable, and user-centered interactive exhibits within the field of industrial design and engineering.
