Advent: 'Device for safe contact in public transportation and anthroponotic diseases during pandemics.'

Abstract

The recent pandemic has highlighted just how essential public transport is to the communities around the world. With the current public transport designs, we are very much exposed to anthroponotic diseases and time has come for us to survive like this. My aim is to design a product which can be adapted to a new normal while attempting to design a bus with appeal and safe travel experience while beingsustainable. The design will have features that promote the use of public transport and present it in a positive light. Along with this it serves to create awareness about personal boundaries and hygiene. It will be comfortable enough for the users, and will come with a flexible sitting arrangement, making it feasible for both situations, pandemic, and non-pandemic. The product will encourage the human interaction but with the precautions and safety measures keeping them in the safe zone. The user touch points will be reduced.
