TUMitfahrer App:
Shared Location-Commuting
For instance, it is possible to arrange a subsequent ride to the city center while still at a lecture in Garching. The app can only be used by TUM students and staff, so the person driving won’t have to give a lift to strangers. A small fee can be negotiated to cover the costs.
The TUMitfahrer App was voluntarily developed within a project of the TUM Junge Akademie. It was thought up by a team of seven students from different courses of studies, coordinated by Martin Rothbucher and Prof. Klaus Diepold (TUM Department of Data Processing). It will be operated as a temporary field trial until autumn of 2013.
