Bipool

BICYCLE SAFETY DESIGN SPRINT COMPETITION WINNING PROJEC 2013 -2014

Bikepool creates a formal infrastructure for carpool-like bicycle commute rides. The concept is based on the fact that there is safety in numbers, and that increasing bicyclist visibility will encourage people to choose biking over driving. My team of four designers came up with a mobile App that would track people who bike, and suggest popular routes. We also created bike stations for Bikepool users, encouraging bike riders to meet up and travel together.

The main function of the website is to educated people about Bipool. Also, we expect people share our website on a social network or help us to hang poster around Silicon Valley. By this way, we can get more people support. The website will encourage the audience to engage Bipool not only by a ride with it but also fill out the roads survey and hang Bipolar posters at their location. By this way, people feel more likely to use Bipool station because they are apart of the group and they are creating the routes by themselves. Also, it will encourage existing user to bring up more expecting users.
