Originally completed for a class assignment, this project ended up being submitted to the CHI 25 Student Design Competition. It was an intense four-month-long process, starting from problem motivation to user studies to building an interactive prototype. I basically squashed my entire winter break and the beginning of January to create the competition deliverables (which, btw I do NOT recommend lmao). However, this was one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever got to try.

I want to say a *huge* thank you to Ethan for being an awesome collaborator and co-author for this project. While we didn't achieve the result we had hoped for, I hope Coolight can inspire more work in the space of urban mobility—it is an understatement how much mobility in urban areas (e.g., accessible roads, safe streets) impacts the quality of life for citizens living in a city.
