Innovation Description :
The students have given the idea of a device, which can calculate the exact amount of money to be paid to porter based on time put in, distance travelled and load carried. They always observed porters arguing with customers about what the amount needed to be paid to them. They also realized that people do not haggle or bargain over the fare shown by the auto or taxi meter. So, using the same idea in the first context, they thought of a device that can benefit both porters as well as the travelers.
