TRAFFIC GURU | A Mobile Application for Traffic Updates in Guwahati City
Project Guide : Asst. Prof. Dr.Pratul Kalita - Department of Design, IIT Guwahati | Duration : Jan 2015 – Feb 2015
Traffic guru is a one-stop solution to solve the problems users face while travelling within a city. It helps users make trade-offs while travelling like which route to take to reach a destination, which mode of transport to use or whether to wait for a bus. The proposed solution provides necessary information that users need to make such trade-offs.
The Aim of the Project was to analyze the present Traffic Scenario in Guwahati City and propose a innovative and efficient system to enhance the traffic management system.
A systems design approach was adopted - System study, gap analysis among subsystems, developed a new system framework and designed a pervasive solution which seamlessly integrates into a person’s activities.
System design was a learning experience since it required us to make lot of trade-offs while defining features. It required designing a system for different personas.
