PlusDrive is a commercially available driver-in, autonomous driving product. The system is governed by Plus's Level 4 autonomous driving technology, in which a driver remains behind the wheel to monitor the system. Plus AI's after-market products are highly-automated driving solutions that attach to standard semi-trucks to turn them into semiautonomous vehicles.

Speck Design worked on a series of projects to integrate PlusDrive sensor arrays into US semi-trucks. Speck's area of specialization was with side mirror components for various truck models. One of the initial challenges was designing the cover components so they properly integrated with the existing internal components designed by Plus AI. The slope and bracketry meant complex surfacing and difficulty merging the visual and functional requirements.
The Speck Design team took a hands-on approach to resolve the design challenges inherent to an after-market retrofit project. They visited the Plus AI headquarters to take measurements and pictures and review key details with in-house engineers already working on Plus AI systems. Through various concept reviews and revisions, our team honed in on concepts that stayed close to each model's original design specifications and languages but still represented something distinctly different. Finally, through creative space utilization, the team was able to reduce the size of the panel for manufacturing and assembly optimization.
The components in the PlusDrive systems are changing the face and function of transportation. Their Highly Automated Driving (HAD) technology is being utilized on several truck models in the US, including Peterbilt and Traton. Powered in part by components designed and optimized by Speck Design, their driver-in, PlusDrive solutions are setting new standards for safety and performance today while moving the world closer to a future of full autonomy.
