Inspiration

Thinking about how much time you have and what you can do in that time may bring anxiety.

What it does

Users of this "app" will always know how much time do they have before next flight and add adventures into free time slots. The app will continuously track location of the user within airport and calculate time needed to walk to different facilities in airport considering real time human flow.

How I built it

It is a teamwork. We spent "exactly the right amount of time" for ideating and brainstorming sessions. We followed 4D design principle. Problem: How to fill/ make the most out of my available time at the airport? As a transit passenger I don’t know what my next step should be and how much time the process takes.

Value proposition: Making the most out of my time at the airport while making it to the next flight.

Challenges I ran into

The main challenge was to come up a problem so that we can find a solution. During brainstorming sessions, we wrote all the pains one can experience during transit flight. It was also hard to focus on a narrow problem due to lots of problematic issues.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We think we addressed really important problem of transit passenger who always have an extra level of anxiety due to unawareness of transit airport. It is essential to reduce that anxiety as much as possible to prevent other possible psychological hazard.
