Virtual Retail: Shopping without the Overhead
Virtual Retail as a Solution:
People waiting for theis train can use a mobile shopping application on their smartphones to scan all the virtual product QRs, fill a virtual cart and complete their daily or weekly shooping just from walking along the large panels. At the end, they can check out and pay with their own credit card using the regular virtual retail portal.
Idea:
Let the store come to the people and save on excessive overhead costs.
How does it work? 1 Set up an account online for QR Shopping. 2 Scan the QR code of a product with your smartphone. 3 The product automatically lands in your online cart. 4 When the online purchase is finished, it is delivered to your door after your arrival.

Identifying Prototypes
Convenience
Prototype 1: Fast Farmacy Dispenser w/ Bus Shelter
A technologically advanced prescription drug dissension prototype that would not be fully staffed and would allow customers to access filled prescriptions for a longer period of time. This prototype will feature telemedicine in order to access a pharmacy and would allow customers the luxury of being able to pick up their prescriptions at any time. On an hourly rotation schedule, certified pharmacy technicians will be able to dispense prescriptions into a secure locked area, where the medication will stay until the customer picks it up at a given time. These prototypes will exist in micro locations such as bus stops and above ground subway stations. Drug Distribution

Prototype 2: Fast Farmacy Dispenser & Walk-Up Counter
This model will not only feature the benefits of the Fast Farmacy Dispenser, but also have a walk up counter to benefit the needs of the elderly. The walk up counter will be staffed by a pharmacy technician and will also feature telemedicine in order for customers to as a certified Pharmacist questions regarding their medications. This model will be occupiable and allow for the storage and mixing of more complicated and time sensitive medications. This prototype will exist in medium sized subway stations as well as subway stations that provide transportation to several subway lines in one stop. Drug Distribution
