What is the quickest way to ask for help?

HELPY – A smart emergency assistant

Miriam Pardeller

Helpy is an assistance device which is thought for emergency cases at Bolzano train station, where there is no installed system that can be used to get immediate help. It will be attached to the pillars at platform level: With one click users get in contact with a responder who can help immediately.

 

A project made in the course

Mind the Gap…!

Ideas for a better quality of stay at Bolzano Station. Much is said about train stations. They are operating facilities and built ideology, a stop for public transport and cargo terminal, a showpiece of their city and a gateway to the world, an infrastructure hub and mobility-system component, a cathedral of the industrial age and shopping mall, a place of longing and Non-Place, a welcome home and a kiss goodbye. Based on our extensive field research and starting from a growing awareness of the ecological benefits of rail travel as well as the changing socio-cultural conditions – triggered by COVID-19 – the semester project focused entirely on the public user interface of Bolzano Station.
