Public transportation has always been a crucial component of many metropolitan cities around the world. We’ve observed that a great amount of people around us tend to avoid taking MARTA, with one of the most common reasons being personal safety concerns. The goal of this project is to 1) Understand what factors affect riders’ perceived safety on MARTA rail system and 2) Devise a solution to increase perceived safety on MARTA rail system. Based on our research, we created a crowdsourcing prototype that helps users to report incidents and identify the population density of the incoming trains.

The Space Table is an interactive informal experience to teach children about the formation of solar systems and how gravity, and mass play a role in their creation. Additionally, the project will explore the concepts of different celestial bodies such as stars, planets, asteroids, neutron stars, black holes, and others. The installation will make use of three tangibles, one for a different star size. Interactors will use the tangibles to “stamp” a star on the table, which will spawn a digital star.
