Today, June 20, the first phase of the “InTO” experimental project, conceived and designed by Italdesign’s newly formed department dedicated to Mobility Solution will be launched; it aims to offer Turin Metro’s passengers an immediate and simple service to improve their experience onboard.
Above the doors allowing access on board the carriages at the Re Umberto pilot Metro station some LEDs have been installed; when the train arrives at the station, LEDs turn on indicating the occupation percentage of each coach: GREEN if it’s free, YELLOW if it’s half-occupied, ORANGE when it’s fully crowded.
“InTO is a concrete example of how we imagine future mobility will have to be” — Massimo Martinotti, Head of Future Mobility at Italdesign, declared — “A service conceived and designed around and for the citizens. The final goal is to get our daily lives better, easier and more efficient thanks to a smart use of technologies.”.
