This project features a real-time digital billboard that displays a city’s cumulative gasoline consumption and carbon emissions in a gamified style. The billboard updates daily, showing the total amount of fuel purchased and the equivalent carbon emissions through color-coded bar charts, with green indicating low consumption and red indicating high. A smiley or frowny face is displayed based on the corresponding emissions to provide an emotional cue.

Key Features:

• Daily Gasoline Consumption Score:
  • Displays the city’s total gasoline consumption each day, represented in bar charts, with clear visual cues for high (red) and low (green) consumption.
• Real-Time Feedback Loop:
  • Provides real-time data on fuel consumption and emissions, allowing the community to see their impact and adjust behavior accordingly.
• Gamified Visual Design:
  • Uses smiley or frowny faces alongside the bar charts to reflect the city’s carbon performance, making the data more relatable and engaging.
• Call to Action for Sustainability:
  • Encourages the community to reduce fuel consumption by switching to electric vehicles, driving less, going car-free, or participating in city-wide planning efforts to lower emissions.

The digital billboard serves as a public tool to disclose the city’s gasoline consumption, motivating individual and collective actions to reduce emissions through real-time visual feedback.
