Problem: It can be dangerous for pedestrians when sharing footpaths with cyclists and personal mobility device users.

Solution: Augmented Reality Pavements

Augmented reality in the future may provide information on-the-go but this could at times be distracting and lead to accidents. This project seeks to conceptualize a more clutter free experience with a focus on features to keep pedestrians safe when walking along Read more →

Final Project Proposals / 3 Ideas

Idea 1

Problem

The lack of social interaction on public transport. Passengers onboard are unwilling to move in.

Proposed Solution/ Idea

Through the use of technology, social interactions on public transport could be created by connecting people. This can be done by replacing the walls of buses/trains with interactive wall or floors. These walls not only serve as a platform to connect people, it also Read more →

South Korea actually launched a new campaign to remind commuters to give their seats to pregnant women, it is pretty interesting and ties in with your Idea 2. Check it out! :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxpjfnOTLzs
Hi Katie! Just a few thoughts that I had. 1. I have always thought of how to make trains more interactive by adding 'dance' steps on the floor. But I think the digital interface provides more ways to create more games to play too! 2. I do like the idea of scraping the 'reserved seat' sticker and introducing coloured seats. I thought that the project could be like, traffic light colours. It's more based on the user's responsiveness. Users get to plan if they are willing to give up their seat - Green. Users who are feeling a little tired/carrying too much but still willing to stand - Orange. And users who are totally not willing to give up their seats - Red. The Chip idea is also great, wondering how you can pair them together. 3. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sixtostart.zombiesrunclient&hl=en And here's a zombie run experience that was created before. It's an audio experience and includes challenges as well.
Really love the video you linked; almost exactly like how i vision it :) Thank you for the feedback, i will take them into considerations!
thank you for the link! Seems like a great idea to incorporate, I will take them into consideration :)

3 examples of thoughtful UX design

@ Pham Nhat Binh

Personal criteria of thoughtful UX

Personally, I believe thoughtful user experience design entails firstly the understanding of not only the users’ need but also the context where such need presents. The solution also has to consider the emotional, social and environmental impacts of its installation because users’ values are not only about completing goals but also how he feels or looks Read more →

IDEATION:

MRT 

At these 3 different points, commuters’ behavior and attitude changes. Outside the train, they feel frustrated and annoyed, they want people to move in so they can board the train. However once they are in the train, these feelings of anxiousness and angst fades away and they no longer feel the need and drive to move into the cabin. 

The idea Read more →
