POV: Tourists at Stanford

The ideal tourist at Stanford would like to find the buses on campus, because they want a more compelling touring experience around Stanford

Minimal Viable Product

💡
Our space is a sustainable bus station for the marguerite buses around Stanford campus.
  • Attract and prompt tourists to choose a more sustainable mean of travel to move around campus, in this case the bus, through ways such as:
    • Creating noticeable signs on all four sides of the bus station, so people can know from a distance which station it is.
    • A large digital display that indicates which location the bus will take them too, allowing them to understand the campus better.
  • Create a chance for other people (such as students) to travel around the campus more efficiently, by including:
    • Electric shared bikes that can be parked at any bus station, so then students will have a chance to use a bike without renting or purchasing one.
      • This is helpful for students staying for a certain session, such as Summer Session students, as they may not want to invest too much in a transportation tool.
