Using the SPSS tools and methodology, we will analyze the system that the Hop On, Hop Off bus operates within and ensure that the product is sustainable, stable, and delivers resource-efficient energy, by considering all stakeholders and potential feedback systems.

 

Focusing on wind energy, we will use the lens of Biomimicry to improve the system and create a product that will improve user interaction within the socio-technical systems and contexts. 

As of third year, we were approached with optimism and were requested to create our own brief centered around energy usage whilst using various SPSS frameworks and LeNS tools provided by our lecturers, as well as the Biomimicry Life's Principles in accordance with our product. We were divided into categories/groups with focus being the urban areas of Cape Town in the Western Cape, SA. By focusing on the major tourism industry around Cape Town we decided to focus on the City Sightseeing Cape Town Hop On- Hop Off tours.
