Prorotype and development
This real scaled model was made in cardboard, with a draft version of what will become then interfaces of the machine.
The dimensions are rough and the appearance will be greatly improved, but this prototype helps to better understand
the requiremenrts and aspects to include in the final design.
Areas to improve
There are many aspects in which this prototype could become a better design. First, the shape should adapt to better suit
both users and technicians, making it easier to interact with and to do maintenance on.
The final machine will also offer better options for the user. From recharging metro cards to suggest destinations, and even
adding the possibility to print the directions for the selected route.
Finally, there will also be some accesibility options available, like having voice instructions or asking for human assistance.
