Smart Metro Station
Smart Metro Station
(2011 : Independent)
A metro station layout designed for modularity and linear flow pattern of the passengers. By employing technology to guide the commuters through proper channels, this station makes sure that no flow is opposed throughout the commute. The rectilinear flow ensures that the ingress and egress take lesser time, thus saving a considerable amount of time over the full trip.
This concept was presented at MMRDA and has won the title "top 10 Indian Designs" at Indialogues.

(2010 : Minor Project)
Amoeba is a solution to the ever-decreasing vehicle occupancy ratio. the concept was to design a vehicle, which can act as both, a personal mobility solution with a smaller footprint as well as, can accommodate up to four people when needed. the highly expandable structure of the vehicle solves the problem. The presence of Omniwheel like components also makes it easy for parking in tight spaces
BTI : Lunar loo
BTI : Lunar loo
(2019 : Independent)
BTI or Butt Toilet Interface was a concept designed for enhancing the zero gravity and microgravity toilet experiences. The concept is to create a small wearable, which can make the toilet more personal, and reduce the in-between time. This project was done as a response to HEROx competition, sponsored by NASA, to upgrade the toilet systems on the International Space Station. This solution was presented as an immediately available, low-cost fix.
