Transportation is crucial for societal, individual, and national functionality, development, and sustainability. Limited access to public transport or expensive transport options makes it difficult for people to access economic opportunities, educational facilities, and other crucial services, especially in underprivileged urban communities. This study focused on the design, fabrication, assembly, evaluation, and testing of transportation kiosks for the TUP community. The prototype is an innovative transportation kiosk compiled with the TUP community's transportation inefficiency. Viable inputs were used to formulate the electrical diagrams, process flow, and prototype assembly. The transportation kiosk was fabricated using Raspberry Pi 3b, Webcamera, LM2596 module, Battery Protection Board BMS, 18650 3.7 Lithium Battery, 7” Inches Touchscreen Display, DC female Jack, Switch, and Battery Indicator. Its primary function is to provide a platform for booking rides and facilitating safe and convenient transportation within the Tup community. Testing revealed excellent data speed, reliable QR code scanning, all lighting conditions, and accurate battery indicators. The lithium battery performed well with good heat dissipation but slightly below its rated capacity. Notifications were clear and timely, and the touchscreen ensured precise operation. The respondents are computer engineering students, faculty members, IT specialists, and Tricycle drivers . Give the kiosk a mean rating of 4.72, indicating a high acceptability in accuracy, functionality, durability, efficiency, workability, aesthetics, and safety.
