This document proposes two ideas to encourage people to slow down and enjoy life more: 1) installing speed cameras on streets that detect if pedestrians are walking too fast and display their photo on screens telling them to slow down, and 2) adding screens to traffic lights that show interesting facts to read while waiting for the light to change in order to reduce hurrying. The document suggests these ideas could help slow the global clock down by making people more aware of their speed and environment.

Technology, business, cars, trends, people...
Things got too fast.
Our idea?
Speed cameras for pedestrians.
Every famous street/bridge in cities around the world
is equipped with a camera that tracks your speed.
When walking to fast it sends your photo to the
nextstanding screen saying: Hey you, slow down! Enjoy
life!
Red light fun.
:)
Imagine traffic lights with screens that fill you in with
interesting facts while waiting for the green light.

3. It has the “wow” effect.
It’s 2030.
It makes people think.
It’s universal for all countries.
It slows the clok down.
It’s global.
It’s social network shareable.
It’s fun! :)
The project : dump speed, enjoy red.
