AudioSpot - Universal Accessibility to Geolocated Information
AudioSpot is an Android-based program developed by aziere jocelyn that provides guidance and dissemination of proximity information for smartphones and tablets. It offers geolocated audio, visual, or audiovisual content based on the visitor's profile and language. Tourists, cultural enthusiasts, and the differently-abled can benefit from this app as it provides information on directions, localizations, practicalities, and cultural/historical significance.
The program offers access to information in an adapted format for persons with disabilities. The guiding audio and audio description features are useful for the visually impaired, while the LSF visual and video content is beneficial for the hearing impaired. The app also provides plans of localizations with specific access for persons with reduced mobility and FALC language for those with cognitive disabilities. AudioSpot offers a geolocated and interactive audioguide for all visitors, personalized by their profile and multilingual, with content that can be updated online in real-time.
