The Campaign

Designing of a school bus where non-verbal communication becomes possible - A way to talk with a friend sitting in a seat far away - A way to send pictures and letters to friends - Selfies taken with the camera installed on the window can be sent to the parents’ phones

Creative Execution

- An user interface that serves as a non-verbal communication platform : Based on an universal design that stems from an experience most people share, that would allow for easy usage - Turtle character : A large number of students had turtles as pets, so turtle was chosen as the friendly representative of UI. This character serves as a guide so the students can use the window intuitively - Functions: a. Interaction with the turtle character b. Conversations with the turtle character c. Conversation with friends in other seats d. “Word Chain” game with all the friends in the bus e. Sending messages and pictures to parents’s mobile devices, outside of the bus - We wanted it to be a surprise to the students, so we utilized Transparent OLED to make the touch screens look the same as the previous regular windows.

Indication of how successful the outcome was in the market

- Through the design of “Chatty School Bus”, we were able to transform the boring commute hours into the most fun time of the day - First attempt in the world to create a non-verbal UX for students with hearing impairments, on a school bus. - People who were inspired by the school bus design and the campaign filed for a petition against the government demanding more institutions for the impaired, and as a result the government announced its plans to build 2 new special schools and to instate 66 special classes within regular schools, by 2022. - The campaign received praises for the design that made hearing-impaired students’ commute fun, in that it was CSR campaign that was approached from a point of view well-suited for a car company.
