01The problem
Many people in Indian cities break traffic rules out of habit: wrong-way riding, signal jumping, phones at the wheel, no-parking, triple riding. Lectures and fine tables rarely change behaviour. Road Sense uses humour, local characters and local-language voices to make the real consequences (fines, licence suspension, court) stick in about a minute per episode.
02Who it is for
Citizens of Bengaluru (Kannada and Telugu speakers, with English subtitles for all); classrooms, offices, kiosks and families watching together.

06How I built it with AI
Concept built by Srini with AI tools: AI-generated clay-style artwork (hero, cast and 15 episode images), synthesised (text-to-speech) Kannada and Telugu voice lines, and AI-assisted code for the single-file app, 3D scenes and games. The package also ships an AI-assisted Installation & Admin Manual and User Guide (PDF). No prompt or conversation file is included in the project files.
07Design highlights
Humour over lectures: a recurring cast (unbribable Officer Gowda, sarcastic Ajji, wailing toddler Bunty) makes each rule memorable
Local-language first: every act is voiced in Kannada and Telugu, with English subtitles always on
Real consequences up front: each episode's 'bill' shows the fine and law section; drunk driving goes to court, and Harassing Women scores 'Dignity saved' rather than money
Gamified loop: score out of 15, fines dodged, Spot the Violation and a fine total translated into masala dosas
Zero-friction deployment: one static index.html with bundled scripts and voices, runs offline on a laptop, kiosk or projector
