Description

We plan to create a ‘bus stop kiosk’ that is able to provide relevant information to waiting commuters such as bus arrival times and location of buses along the bus route. Information is displayed through a physical map with LEDs to indicate the location of the bus and LED matrices to indicate bus times to arrival. The kiosk will have internet connectivity to the Duke Wi-Fi network to obtain bus information through the Transloc API. The system will ideally be powered through a battery that can be rechargeable via a solar panel. Furthermore, the project is extensible, as it is possible to add additional features or information to our display (weather, social media).
