  1. How does the red colour go back to green colour after the bus leaves the bus stop?

  2. Is it possible that the machine will get abuse by children?
    Can the system be undo?

  3. How big is the model? Where will it be substituted in the bus stop? Interesting idea :)

  4. Its a good system idea for flagging down busses, however this has some faults in it, such as pranking, indecision of the passengers and the time of the arrival, which results to inconvenience at times.

    Perhaps this could be refined in order to prevent these faults from happening, such as a human operator?

  5. Is it really necessary?
    Such a system to be use for a simple problem looks kind of like an overkill

  6. Is the cost worth the problem solved? People don't really miss buses THAT often, and this system would cost a lot of money, but only saves maybe a few minutes or here and there. The technical side is way too complicated and probably expensive as well. I think that the transmission is unnecessary and extravagant. However, the general idea was good

    1. Also, it is prone to misuse by others

  7. Nice product and idea. If there is only 1 bus that will arrive at that bus stop, is there a need for it?

  8. Would it be feasible? Because if this machine would be implemented, the bus agencies will need to change the buses and bus stops.

  9. Good idea, but is there any way to prevent pranksters from spamming the system?

    Quite a good idea, but it is not really practical though.

  11. Would the people know how long more till the next bus comes?

  12. Interesting product and idea, but may need to think through the product a little more. There are a lot of bus stops in singapore, is it necessary for all?
