N-Queen is a puzzle and the problem of placing eight chess queens on an n×n chessboard so that no two queens attack each other. A solution requires that no two queens share the same row, column, or diagonal. The eight queens puzzle is an example of the more general n-queens problem of placing n queens on an n×n chessboard, where solutions exist for all natural numbers n with the exception of n=2 and n=3

Game Info

Launch N-Queen

N-Queen is the extended version of clas-

sical 8-Queen problem wherein you have

to place the 8 queens in such a way that

no one attacks the other.

It was proposed by German mathemati-

cian Gauss C.F

Here you cannot place a queen against

the other along the same row or column

or diagonally. You will be asked to place

different number of queens on a 8*8

chessboard starting with minimum of 4

queens.

Enter the number of queens to place

It is basically a tourist guide application to help the tour-ists with real-time informa-tion to assist them pre-plan or plan their transport/trav-el activities during the trip, while being on the move. Also it shows the list of points of interest (POIs) according to the users ex-perience like ‘outdoor’ or mountain hiker etc.

2.2

Get your attraction list to your choice and experience, through smart filters and add a place of visit (if you want to)

Add / Delete places exploiting the feature of Trip Planner

Get shortest distance between places and details of time of visit for each

Get the info of a particular POI with detail about opening and closing hours that helps you to plan your visit

UI Design

2.3

Also the trip planner asks for the entry point to a particular place like railway st., bus stand,airport. The reason for this aspect is to aid the tourists to select a nearest Point of Interest to a particular entry point.

The Smart Trip Planner suggests list of places according to the distance of the POI from the entry point and also con-sidering the opening time of that place

Indian cities have become synonymous with congestion, noise, and air pollution. The continuing urban boom will stress an already-pressured urban infrastructure system, especially around transportation and traffic. Tier 1 cities being the most impacted, more so with the planned rapid transit systems and metro rail projects.

Constraint was that no new construction or infrastructure is expected, no new flyovers, or railway lines, or skywalks, or such built forms which would disrupt the daily lives fur-thermore.

Project 7

System Design

7.1

Solution:A mixed bag of technology and strategies keeping in mind primarily the safety of the pedestrians

Traffic signals will be connected to the signages before and after it, on the road, to give information to the com-muters about the status of the congestion/traffic ahead of them.

The Ambulance and the traffic signals will be con-nected through an auditary channel (unique & high frequency) i.e. the traffic signal will have a receiver and it will catch the frequencies of the emergency vehicles and will alert the traffic around it via replicating the siren through the speakers on the signal & light signals sideways.

System Design

Concept of implementing a virtual wall projection to help pedestrians cross roads safely

Encouraging & guiding the pedestrians to use subways more through proper signage system and facelifting of the space. Also this will leave space for bicy-cles on the road.

The road side informal activities by the hawk-ers, footpath sellers etc. can be shifted to the subways through proper law enforcement strategies.

Rationalizing Typography:Learning by doing

Sunil, the guy in charge of the photocopier shop, having a tough time calculating how much money the customers owe him while making multiple copies of a document, as cost per copy is 0.75 paise.

So, why not help him provide with a calculator? Thing is calculating in mind is faster and to add on to that his hands are busy counting the photocopies.

Scenario:

Information Design

A price chart is de-signed. First of all, the overall matrix has been chunked into groups. Bright, unique colors has been imparted to each group to give a different identity. A call-out of range of number of pages is given to reduce the search time across all groups.A darker shade has been applied to the midline to further reduce seek time.

Information Design

Project Background

The child health record serves at least five functions in the health system:

1. A unique identifier that is intimately connected to the child

2. A source of critical information for health workers about the child’s health and vaccination status, and what the child needs at each point of contact with the health system

3. A source of critical information for families, such as date of next visit for vaccination

4. A source of critical information for household surveys, which many countries and policy-makers rely on to validate the vaccine coverage levels obtained from administrative data systems

5. An educational tool for families to learn more about health interventions

RECORDS FOR LIFE

Project 9

Information Design

There is no place on the record to indicate date of next vaccina-tion, so health worker may write it in the ‘date of vaccination’ column, so that health workers later on might think the child actually had the vaccine.

If cooking oil, wa-ter, mud or any-thing else spills on the cardboard record, then it is no longer legible and the informa-tion on it is lost

Important issues like scalability, comprehensiveness, way of translating the record to computer are considered with prop-er brainstorming

The text on the health record is incomprehensible to the illiterate mother; the imag-es depict various activities such as breastfeeding but do not help the mother re-member duration, benefits, and other key facts

Health worker grabs a new child health record to fill in re-cent BCG, HBV and Polio vac-cinations of a newborn, uses public health information on the record to illustrate to the mother how to care for her baby during the first 48 hours of life, and confirms with mother the next date of vaccination.

Use of icons as per vaccines with color coding

Information Design

What the packet contains, is not understood from a distance

Proper illustration is missing about the product’s function

The various visual elements are not properly alligned

Grouping of icons by similar activites is required.

Link between Composition & Content is missing and chances of misreading is high.

The logo should ideally be rotated by 180° anticlockwise

Based on the observations and feedback of the users, information is to chunked & positioned according to its importance, relevance and conveying a message.

Considering results from above approach redesign / improvement can be initiated.

Analysis started considering the product journey from where it ispacked, stacked, displayed, its usage, storage and disposal,asking relevant user and also introducing the same packet to person who never used to have a brief about their perception of the product,Understanding information to be conveyed by the design and what it is currently conveying.

We would like to thank to Dr. Jayesh Pillai for consistent guidance through out the making of the video.

The claymation animation was done with the purpose of a promotional video for the Student Design Challenge, a part of the In-ternational Conference MiniDew 2013. The workshop’s theme was on Sustainable de-sign and Nature Inspired Design. Examine how waste disposal is carried out in nature and apply these lessons to a waste disposal problem in your locality. The solution must consist of a technology, product, service, or process and should emulate a natural proc-ess, pattern or system.
