Urban Bus Stop_ Arduino_ Dylan Davis


Firefly for Grasshopper is used to bridge the gap between Grasshopper and the Arduino micro-contoller.  This allows for the collection of real-time data from internet feeds or remote sensors.  These sensors, that are creating a measurable output, can affect the surroundings by controlling lights, motors, and other actuators.

For my Bus stop design, I utilized the structure of the previous iteration and reformed the moving partition walls to be ceiling panels.  These panels can determine the location of occupants inside the bounds of the bus stop and position themselves overhead.



The bus stop will playfully engage with occupants as the panels follow people as they move through the space.  When the bus arrives and occupants begin to form a line, so will the panels.
