This semester project be finished in July 2019.
This project is based on the electric autonomous Ferry CAPTN, which aims to establish a more convenient and effective way of man-machine communication. In the autonomous ferry, the design is to get closer in a human-machine interactive relationship and show the maturity of unmanned technology to give passengers more trust.
With the popularity of smartphones, we will gradually reduce the use of paper Tickets. The bill will be turned into a souvenir now or in the future. I have designed traditional bills for first-time users and are also doing a form with the Informations of navigation.
Since CAPTN is autonomous ship, passengers will be as clueless as they are using the machine for the first time, and they need a guide to complete the first sailing. Before boarding, it is necessary to remind passengers of the arrival time of the ferry and the entrance by the dock. During the sailing, the ship’s movement, speed, or next stop etc. all of status informations are essential for passengers that should let passengers know in real time. I also hope that, through interactive media, tickets can play a more interesting communication and establish a good first experience for passengers.
The design includes a paper ticket and an application that passengers download to their mobile phones. Since the CAPTN project connects public transportation to the ferry dock, the navigation and status display services is effective from the bus station until the destination wherever the passenger arrives.
The newly designed tickets are made available through ticket machines. Visitors can use this ticket to get on and off through the ticket gates. The ticket is also used to record the data of the user during the trip. The passenger can easily monitor the information about the current status of the ferry with their own smartphone. After driving, the passenger can take the ticket as a souvenir back home.
