Last semester, I worked with Sunnie Sang on an energy tracking app for household appliances called Zooly. We personified home appliances as living, breathing pets in a menagerie that can be healthy, sick, a vampire, or a ghost.
MTA subway trains go through many states as well and what if we could similarly visualize them for users in a more delightful way? Not only does this lend more of a fun and emotional quality to what is often seen as an unpleasant and cold experience, but it can also provide glance-able information in the MTA mobile app or subway interactive screens to on-the-go users.
