Accessible Bus Stop Preview for Visually Impaired

This proposed research aims to advance inclusive audiovisual aids for outdoor navigation and public transportation by leveraging insights gained from state-of-the-art research on maps for visually impaired individuals. We surveyed twenty participants with vision impairments to gather insights and then created a prototype based on their feedback. Additionally, we evaluated the prototype with ten participants with vision impairments by previewing the accessibility of bus stop areas and their surroundings to improve inclusive public transportation. Our research also involved analyzing bus routes to ensure they meet accessibility standards and enhance navigation for users with vision impairments.
