Technical Report Draft 2


  1. Benefits


5.1 Maximised seating capacity and fully utilising it.


The figure below compares the current seating arrangement against what it would look like with the implementation of “Traybles” in both canteens.
Figure 3 shows a typical example of current and proposed seating arrangement in Canopy.
Figure 4 shows a typical example of current and proposed seating arrangement in I-Eat.
From the figures above, we can observe that there are empty seats in between different groups of students in the same row of table. If the school is to implement the usage of ‘trayble’, the school will be able to fully utilise the seating capacity as the student will only take the number of ‘trayble’ they requires.
5.2 Time Saving
Aside from being able to maximize and fully utilise the seating capacity, it will help save time for students in SIT to look for available seat for lunch. The estimated time saved per day per student is approximate 10 minutes based on the survey conducted. (Refer to Appendix 2 for calculation).
5.3 Convenience


The next benefit will be that it will be easy to shift the chairs away to make space for an event, for example, student orientation camp etc.
5.4 Encourage healthy eating
According to Tyley (2015), eating more than your body needs causes your body to produce this hormone that may cause your brain to tell you that you’re no longer hungry which may result you to overeat and put on weight leading to health problems. Hence, with the ‘trable’ it encourages students to eat at recommended food portion size.

Reader Response Draft 2

In the article “Floor lights help 'smartphone zombies' keep eye on the road”, Christopher Tan (2017) reported that the Land Transport Authority (LTA) is implementing a new road-crossing feature at two locations which involves fixing LED strips onto pavements by those pedestrian crossings. These strips will imitate signals of pedestrian crossings and can be seen throughout the entire day. According to an interview by the author, Gopinath Meno (2017), senior research fellow of Nanyang technological University, stated that the installation of the floor lights would enhance safety of those who are constantly looking at their smartphones as they are unaware of the road condition. While this initiative aims to make pedestrian become more aware of road safety, more publicity are needed to educate the pedestrian about this initiative. Furthermore, I feel that safety should be our own responsibility and by instilling this mindset, it should be more effective than implementing safety ...
