“…Davidson (2008) found that the internet, given its socio-spatial distance, has the potential to contribute to the social inclusion of people on the autism spectrum (AS) [ 74 ]. However, Darcy et al (2017) proposed a personalized use of technology, because not all people with intellectual disabilities acquire and develop learning in the same way, sometimes leading to opposite results [ 77 ].…”

Persons with disabilities have historically been subjected to discrimination and exclusion, placing them in dangerous situations of social vulnerability. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, passed on the 13th of December 2006, was an important legislative landmark for valuing the rights of this population group. This study involved a bibliometric analysis of 1024 research articles published in Scopus on the social, workplace, educational, and financial inclusion of persons with disabilities since the Convention. The results show an increase in scientific production, and there is also a great deal of multi-disciplinarity, which has led to important breakthroughs for the all-encompassing inclusion of this section of the population. The most productive journals, authors, institutions, and countries, as well as the international cooperation networks, are presented here. The review concludes by setting out the main themes and trends in the research.

“…Visually impaired persons use a white cane as a basic aid tool. Research on the possibility of upgrading the white cane with sensor technology is possible according to the proposed architecture, which enables better users informing in the external environment (Ramirez et al 2017). Using the users location data available through social networks and sensors in the IoT environment, it is also possible to develop a help system for informing the visually impaired (Joseph et al 2015).…”

Beacon Technology for Real-Time Informing the Traffic Network Users About the Environment

et al. 2019

Informing the users about their environment is of extreme importance for their full and independent functioning in the traffic system. Today’s development of technology provides the user the access to information about their environment by using the smartphone device at any moment if there is a defined applicative solution. For this, it is necessary to define the user’s environment according to the Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) concept, which understands adequate technology of gathering, processing and distribution of information. This paper presents the proposal of the solution for informing the traffic network users about the environment for the defined group of users based on the beacon technology. The mentioned solution is based on the results of two separate studies about the needs of users who move along a part of the traffic network. The aim of the proposed solution is to provide the user with precise and real-time information and to raise the level of safety during movement.

“…Implementation of the IoT concept in order to provide more efficient information to current users is more representative. Some studies monitor the development of sensory technology within the concept of IoT through the phases of development and planning of a smart city environment [10][11][12]. These studies analyzed the possibility of applying the IoT concept for the purpose of improvement of informing users located in the environment and opportunities that the IoT concept provides.…”

Design and development of systems for delivering real-time information to people with disabilities and elderly persons need to be based on defined user requirements. For this purpose, the user requirements have been defined in this paper according to the everyday needs of people who use traffic networks and move in closed spaces. The logical presentation of the functionality of the informing system operation and its subsystems includes all the information (data) important for designing a user information delivery system. The paper presents a conceptual architecture system for delivering user informing services related to the environment based on the Internet of Things concept. The aim of the user informing service is an increase in the level of mobility of persons with disabilities and the senior age groups of users. In order to check the operation of the proposed architecture, the informing system operation was monitored on Arduino Uno and Raspberry Pi platforms in laboratory conditions. A simulation confirmed the interdependence of individual data from different subsystems in order to provide real-time information to the system user. The proposed conceptual architecture can contribute to a more efficient approach to the modeling of assistive technologies (with the aim of informing the users) based on dew/fog/cloud technologies in the Internet of Things environment.
