SCENARIOS- Group II



Starting with the scenarios building, we came across a lot of concepts that can provide convenience to the general public. These concepts are build on the basis of our reserach made previously at railway stations,bus stops, talking to eorking mothers, educational institutes etc.






Convenience to the passengers travelling by trains:


In this concept, the basic motto is to organise the coolies
(porter) and help passengers get adequate number of coolies as soon as they reach the destination station . This includes a system to be installed in all the boggies where there is one button provided in each compartment and the passengers needing a coolie can press the button . A display on the exterior of the boggie will indicate the cummulative count of the number of buttons pressed which in turn will indicate the number of coolies(porters) required.






In the modern world of fashion and technology, women's needs are changing constantly. This system has been thought for the women who is experimental in nature but does not want to waste a lot of time in decision making. This system basically enables a person to try different set of make up items, hairdo's and other accesories by clicking a photograph of the user and then through a preset kit of different possibilities set by the user according to requirement.







Stealing of ATM cards - a normal thing ??? not now!!


With the coming up of easy access to cash without going through the hassles of paper work, security issues have also sprung up as it is very easy to withdraw money from the ATM by using an ATM card which requires just the password to access. In this system, the ATM cards have been modified to incorporate the user's thumb impression which will be matched with the predefined data and only then the user will get an access to his/her account. This way , even if the card is lost or stolen , money cannot be withdrawn .



Here, the user is provided with assistence in finding it's way to his/her destination with the help of the GPS(global positioning system) incorporated in the user's cell phone.
Here the user can track down the way to the destination by locating the home and the final destination. The system will then show all the possibes routes between the two places and then provide the user with the shortest possible route that can be taken by the user to save time.
If the system is kept "ON" , then it will trace the path as chosen by the user and indicate when the user deviates from the path.






This syetm has been thought of keeping in mind the needs of the students . "Missed calls" is a major source of communication between students where every type of missed call stands for certain mesage to be decoded by the receiver . But many a times, due to lack of proper communication, a certain missed call is not perceived in the correct way by the user and it is confusing. To cater to this problem, this concept has been thought of where a certain number of missed calls will register at the service provider where it will be decoded as the intended message and sent to the receiver at a very nominal cost shared between the caller and the receiver.








This system is designed keeping in mind the needs of the old people in case of emergencies. Here, the system will enable the user to call for help without actually making a call . The system designed will be sensitive enough to sense when the user is in trouble and will inform the nearest possible hospitals for quick help .







This system will provide convenience to the public travelling by buses. It will help the passenger in judging the status of the bus he/she intends to take and avoid panic situations at the Bus- stop .
Intending at teaching the toddlers basics, this learning device will be an interactive and interesting way to impart knowledge. Here, a normal slate has been replaced by a digital slate where it is possible for the user to save all the work done and attached to the computer to see the work saved. This will enable the parents to keep a track of his/her child's progress .
