For those of you who often takes buses to get yourself around, nothing frustrates you more than missing the bus, especially those irregular ones. What if there is a better way to alert you when the bus that you want to get on is approaching?
Eric Forkosh, a junior at Rambam Mesivta High School in Lawrencehas is devising a gadget to address this problem. He created Bus Alert!, a hand held unit that uses radio signals to alert students and parents when the school bus is arriving – a simple but workable solution to everyday problems. This idea can work not only on school buses but public buses as well.
Well, Eric’s idea is not fully matured yet and there is more room for growth. Anybody up for the challenge?
