The bus stop of the future… today * USA
MASS,USA -Crunch Gear, by John Biggs -May 19, 2009: -- This sassy little bus stop - it actually looks more like a cellphone, but who cares - is a design created by MIT architects and engineers. The system will let you tell when the next bus is due, figure out where you are, and even grab news headlines from the aether... It is “covered” in touch-sensitive e-ink screens and can sense where you are, where it is, and what the surroundings are like... MIT architects and engineers just unveiled a design for such a bus stop this past Saturday, at the Genio Fiorentino festival in Florence, Italy... Called EyeStop and developed by the MIT SENSEable City Lab, it takes the tedium out of waiting for the bus and showcases the potential of next-generation urban transportation design...Labels: bus stops
