| contents | People with visual impairments struggle with urban mobility and independent travel, opening up opportunities for technological advances to improve their quality of life. The Internet of Things (IoT) plays an essential role in bringing improvements and accessibility for visually impaired people. Although alternatives aimed to use IoT in urban mobility, those solutions are still in the initial stages and do not supports urban mobility for people with visual impairment. This paper proposed and evaluated a low-cost IoT architecture that uses Single-Border Computers (SBCs) to support urban mobility. A performance evaluation showcased that our low-cost architecture handles bus trace workload and is suitable for supporting impaired people to get information concerning bus location on Smart Cities scenarios. |
