Give me ideas on how we can create a public transportation assistance application on how we can help blind people. This can be a mobile app or wearable device that provides real-time public transportation information, including bus and train schedules, stop locations, and route guidance. The app could use audio cues or vibrations to help blind users navigate public transportation systems more easily and confidently. Please provide detailed concepts on how you would develop this application.
Pick a computing innovation (whether in the arts, science, or solving a practical problem), and write about its original purpose and unintended consequences. What was it designed for in the first place? What were the consequences, how were they missed in the design of the innovation, and how did the designers respond when they appeared? Make a chart like the Facebook example.
Facebook Consequences

Our projects will go a lot more quickly, we’ll save time and money, and all the users will feel as if we’re paying attention to them instead of going away for months on end and not talking to them.” George, an HR manager also thinks that building a prototype can mean only one thing: a nonworking scale model. He also believes that this way is too cumbersome to prototype information systems and thus is reluctant to do so. George is so intrigued with mobile apps and therefore after consultation with the other systems managers of Tricky Pee Business Inc, download a mobile app to track the immunization status of the child.
