A
CITY FOR ALL
Aim-
This is a representation of an idea which is
not just meant to win an event but was created to represent a concept of
change, an approach to help differently abled people to live a life.
The problem
statement-
When we talk about people with disabilities
we talk about a slot which is majorly neglected by our country’s development
and construction sector. They face a major problem in our country because the
development around them somewhat doesn’t help their cause and throughout the
years was never focused on answering their problem.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 15% of the world’s population lives with some form of disability. Smart Cities
Mission is the greatest opportunity
to ensure inclusion and participation of persons with disabilities in ALL new
developments that will now take place in India.
The
Solution – The major segments which
are needed to be taken into consideration are-
1) Movement in
the outdoor-
Outdoor movement has been a major challenge
for physically disabled people for a very long period of time. Restricted
outdoor movement leads to loss in connectivity and incapability of using public
resources.
Other segments are-
2) Entering,
exiting and evacuating buildings
3) Movement
within buildings
4) Use of
individual rooms and facilities
Software
connectivity-
Software’s can be created to give a better connectivity to public
transport and integrating the inline architecture of the city to single map
connectivity system branched to a small personalized format of the software
that works on a specific machine learning algorithm to adapt to the needs of
the disabled person and is able to construct a city movement and transport plan
accordingly.
Conclusion-
There is a need of a city that even takes this
part of the society into consideration and do not neglect their needs.
