Old approach: “fit the user into the system”Old approach: “fit the user into the system”“Here is your map ….
You live here …
Your destination is here …
Your bus will have this label…
When you see this landmark, remember to pull the cable on the bus so the driver knows you will get off at the next stop.
This is where you will get off…
Don’t forget your backpack!OK, now let’s talk about the schedule …. do you know how to read a clock? … “

““Constructive” solution for mobile usersConstructive” solution for mobile usersProof-of-concept of a location-aware, mobile device that:
• gives personalized, logical choices (based on location, time of day and week, abilities, etc.)• provides multi-modal information and feedback in response to user choices and actions.
• communicates with a “virtual” transportation system (and potentially other sources of information) to:
locate the “right bus” prepare for boarding get on the “right bus” prepare to get off at the “right” location reward good performance provide “cognitive post-its” to remember items
easily forgotten in a complex itinerary

Virtual 3D/real-time displayVirtual 3D/real-time displayFor caregivers: Supports preparation and training:
• to better visualize/understand/interact with a complex and dynamic system
• to design see how personalized user prompts (prompting content & sequence, preparation time, prompting frequency, etc.) will interact with real-time vehicles.
Support real-time monitoring and assessment:• use a 3D real-time display to make “confederate observations” of
MULTIPLE users• determine real-time errors, and offer contextualized, real-time help• review performance errors, and create training/intervention strategies

Research hypothesesResearch hypotheses• independence: mobile architecture will afford an ability to
learn more routes, leading to increased independence.• learning: instantiates an “errorless learning” strategy; supports
learning and using “individually relevant” routes.• efficiencies: less time to learn a route; more time to learn
different routes; allows overworked therapists to identify and focus on users with greatest needs.
• personalization: memory and attention prompts can be contextualized and dynamically tailored to suit user needs.
• safety: dynamic error detection and recovery strategies can incorporate both automated and human intervention.
• assessment: can collect real-time data for development, user training and personalization, while avoiding abandonment.
• scale: can be used in other transportation systems with bus GPS infrastructure technologies (see nextbus.com).
many potential “space program” applications!

Mobility for All - future workMobility for All - future work• architecture integration (goal: seamless “look and
feel” for user communities)
• error detection and recovery (“panic button”)
• caregiver feedback (identify training and technology needs, script creation and modification)
• personalization technologies (customizable by caregivers; adaptable to users; engaging to use; supportive of learning and growth)
• test and evaluation on a mobile, wireless platform
