Initial Prototype
First Validation
VALIDATION OF CONCEPT
User testing
User Validation
We had a silent testing with just had the posters in every seating area to instruct the users about the bin . In spite of the chaos we still noticed users use the bin with care and curiosity. We noticed that people refrained from throwing trash out of the window with a bin installed.
In the end of the 4 hour journey we collected feedback.
We facilitated 90% waste collection in the testing phase of the coach dustbins.
FINDINGS
Brainstorming and concept refinement
FINAL CONCEPT
Manufacturing Plan
Lastly,
We further submitted this proposal to Indian Railways and the PM office with installation and maintenance plans suitable for implementation in current train infrastructure.
