NextBus Stop

User & Site Research | Animation

Challenge

To design a bus stop that at a glance and from a distance will inform passengers if their bus is about to arrive.

Role

Researcher and designer

Process

Site visits allowed me to explore the challenges and opportunities of designing for bus stops.

Solution

Uses size, scale and movement to intuitively communicate to passengers how far away the bus is. Similar to a bus appearing larger as it approaches; the numbers representing the bus become larger as the bus nears.

Process

I interviewed passengers and created personas based on interviews

Implementation

Created visualization by compositing images using Photoshop, Illustrator and animating them in AfterEffects.
