Researchers of the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) and the Hospital Universitari Politècnic La Fe have developed a new application, currently in beta, to assist people around the city of Valencia (Spain), especially those who have temporary or permanent reduced mobility by warning users of any urban barrier.
The app will facilitate the diagnosis of the status of the various neighborhoods as regards accessibility and, ultimately, help plan investments in affected neighborhoods .
The project was coordinated by Rafael Temes and Alfonso Moya, professors of the Department of Urbanism of the UPV, and Enrique Viosca, Head of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of the La Fe hospital.
