To do
Made your slide> 1920 x 1080 pixels with your name, project name, Fab Lab name, a photo/render/sketch
of your project, a brief description of what your project is/does
Made a ~1 minute (10MB/1080p) video of you explaining your project
Made a separate Final Project page that briefly summarises your project
Included the BOM (Bill of Materials) for your project
Linked from this page to any weeks that you worked on your final project
Linked to your presentation.png and presentation.mp4
Included all of your original design files in the archive (2D & 3D, board files & code). No external
hosting of final project files - discuss file sizes with your instructor

Our inspiration
What does it do?
Every day we lose more green areas, more and more cities are drowning in pollution, the most
affected are insects, 40% of insect species are in decline, Their extinction rate is eight times
faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles. The total insect population is declining at a
rate of 2.5% per year, based on the best available data, suggesting that these species could disappear within a century
In the end, the most affected by its disappearance will be humans, imagine a world without pollination
The idea of the project is to provide an oasis in the middle of the city, so that insects can find a refuge, this is not only
good for insects, in fact it is good for people, these bus stops will help reduce the suspended particles of air pollution
caused by CO2 emissions from vehicles
The idea is not new, we can already find it in Europe, but in a medium like Ecuador and especially in the city of Tulcan, the
bus stop must also be sustainable, it must be an independent ecosystem, self-sustaining that can support life with little or no maintenance
The entire manufacturing process of this project was very demanding in time and dedication, but thanks to the help of ZOI and our tutor, the
problems were solved one at a time, this whole process included, cnc manufacturing, 3D printing, electronic design. ,
laser cutting, gardening and much more, I invite you to see the process in more detail in the following link

sustainable bus stops in the world
Who's done what beforehand?
We can find some places that have implemented bus stops, here are some interesting images and links
– Florianópolis,
