  • This paper proposes new measures to aid the uses of pubic transport buses by visually impaired people. Many visually impaired people have difficulty using public buses, but current guidance systems and braille blocks are not useful enough, according to a national survey(2017). In this paper, we develop a system with three functions that help to increase the bus accessibility and mobility of visually impaired people: (1)bus reservation using smart phone applications, (2)arrival notification, and (3)wireless bus stop button using Beacon. Experiments have confirmed that our system supports bus reservation, boarding and getting off the bus efficiently.
