The problem

&

Our Inspiration

  • The difficulty of getting around through public transportation or walking in a densely populated city.
  • We experience this problem personally as none of us can drive and have to take public transportation.
  • I interviewed students at TAEHS. This issue affects them because they take public transportation to and from school, especially since they live far.

Our Design Process

  1. How has your idea evolved?
  2. People are looking for apps that not help them travel quickly but also prioritize safety and convenience. Our app addresses this demand by offering a dependable solution for navigating public transportation system, making daily commutes smoother, and more accessible for everyone.
  3. What tools did you use?
  4. We have used figma, pinterest and google images.
  5. How does your project work or how would it work if you could develop it?
  6. Our project is a smart navigation app that helps people get from one place to another using public transportation—like trains, buses, and walking routes. It’s a simpler, more user-friendly alternative to apps like Transit, designed to make traveling easier and more accessible for everyone

8 of 8

Our project, ChooChoo, aims to make public transportation easier and more accessible for everyone. By combining walking, bus, and train routes into one simple platform, we help users confidently navigate their cities with less confusion and stress. ChooChoo provides a cleaner, faster, and more user-friendly experience compared to similar apps, especially for those who are new to public transit.

How It Helps the Area of Need:�As cities grow and more people rely on public transportation, there's a greater need for apps that are easy to use and guide users safely and efficiently. ChooChoo directly supports this need by simplifying route planning, reducing travel anxiety, and encouraging the use of sustainable transportation. It’s especially helpful for students, tourists, and daily commuters who may struggle with current, more complicated apps.

Next Steps (If We Had More Time or Resources):�If we had more time and resources, we would add real-time tracking for buses and trains, accessibility features for people with disabilities, and a voice-navigation option for hands-free use.
