What is Hermes? Hermes is a kiosk design for future high speed trains in America. Hermes aims to be an all-in-one solution for train riders to purchase and print their tickets as well as make any additional changes and purchases prior to their trip.

Why Hermes? Many people on our design team have traveled across the world and a common theme we brought back was the wish for America to have a better public transportation system. One specific example that caught our attention was the bullet trains that Japan is well-known for. We believed that it would greatly benefit America if a high-speed railway system was introduced so we took initiative to design a kiosk that would hopefully inspire a new high-speed future.
