Designed by students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Eye Stop Bus Shelter is equipped with an interactive touchscreen map so you can easily route your way home.
I think we’ve all been in the situation where we had to take an unknown bus route to get to a certain destination, only to get off after and forget the route home. There is nothing worse than standing at a bus stop without a map of only kind and then blindly stepping on board not knowing where you’ll end up. The Eye Stop Bus Shelter could be the answer to relieving that stress and anxiousness.
A design like this so brilliant, I just can’t believe it wasn’t implemented years ago already!
