My college life is nothing like those that I see in movies
where students turn off their alarms at six o’clock in the morning to get ready
and travel to school. In my reality, sleeping is not something I get to enjoy.
Waking up when others are just about to sleep has been my routine for several months.
Because of this, I tend to overestimate my ability to make sure I have enough
time to travel the 30km distance from my house to the university. As someone
who commutes from the province to the city every single day, estimating your
travel time is a struggle. There are moments when leaving the house early would
still result in late arrival, and sometimes, leaving late to arriving on time.
It feels like a complicated puzzle, and just like any other problem to solve, can
add up to stress.
All these contribute to the reasons why as a software developer,
the application I’d begin with would be a Traffic Monitoring App. Features of
this app include a real-time tracker set to different areas all over the province
and city known to be traffic heavy. This would aid private transportation
owners and most especially daily commuters in estimating their travel time using
different transportation means. The app would be available off and online, with
the prior being limited to time-to-time updates on tracking areas, and the
latter having access to maps and navigating tools that give shortcut options
for you to use to avoid heavy traffic. To lessen stress, especially upon
thinking if you’d have enough time to reach your destination given that speeds
of different drivers and cars also vary, your phone with the installed application
would include a motion sensor that is connected to your mode of transport to provide
with information with regards to your exact travel time from one destination to
the next. Along with the real-time feature, this motion-tracking estimation can
also shift per second based on the number of cars in the area.
With the Traffic Monitoring app, traveling would be less
hassle and stressful for daily commuters and students like me. I can adjust my
readying time and ease the burden of stress from thinking about all possible
scenarios of things we cannot personally control.
It is something I would want for myself and my community. And
IT-hink the same for you.
