Signaling the minimum area of personal transit from the projection of a semi-halo of laser light,
(which applies laws No.4 and No.5 of Gestalt theory) to generate an aesthetic-pedagogical experience
that promotes social distancing among users of the Medellín Metro.

Reduce the direct contact of users with surfaces of constant handling and high risk of contagion,
such as the fastening pipes in the cabins, based on their morphological configuration.
O b j e c t i v e # 3
Facilitate the process of personal disinfection and of elements "at hand"
by activating an atomizer incorporated into the internal structure of the object.
