Smart Mobility Solutions: An IoT-Driven Mobile Application for Enhancing Accessibility for Individuals with Disabilities
摘要
This study focuses on the design and prototype development of a mobile application that utilizes Internet of Things (IoT) technology to improve the quality of life for individuals with motor disabilities. These individuals often encounter obstacles within their homes that hinder their ability to perform daily activities independently. To address this issue, a mobile application was developed to control a motorized system that automates the opening and closing of residential doors, providing users with increased autonomy. The application’s primary goal was to create an accessible and customizable user interface, allowing users with mobility challenges to manage their home environment efficiently. The application was designed strongly emphasizing accessibility, ensuring ease of use while delivering secure and efficient control over automatic doors. User feedback was integral to the design process, ensuring the final product met the specific needs of the target population. The results suggest that integrating IoT with a user-centered mobile interface can significantly enhance the independence and quality of life for people with motor disabilities.
