A platform for rail passengers
I want to develop a platform that offers the possibility to "connect" two passengers that have the same or complementary interests.
Example A
A mathematics student travels by train from Berlin to Frankfurt and could meet a maths teacher who -by pure chance- is taking the same train to exchange ideas
Example B
A 8 year old child travels without parents from Hamburg to Munich as well as an older couple who are willing to watch over the child for that time.
Why trains?
- time that can be use more effectively (time can't not be used differently; you have to be in the train)
- it requires a little effort (you don't have to go somewhere to get coaching
- different generations take the train regularly => different levels of knowledge
System of identification
- what is your profession
- how long do you stay in the train
- where are you
