Travel is essential to independent living. But many people, including the 14.2 million persons in US with cognitive impairments, lack basic skills needed to successfully plan and complete a city bus trip. One such skill is the ability to identify the correct stop and signal the desire to disembark at the appropriate time.
Agencies in many cities provide door-to-door paratransit services that get people where they need to go, but cost, on average, 10 times what the same trip would cost using fixed-route transit systems.
This is why researchers at the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) at the University of South Florida (USF) are developing the Travel Assistance Device (TAD), a software and web application for GPS-enabled cell phones that alerts riders with real-time auditory, visual, and tactile prompts when to exit the bus.
