It is a user-friendly innovation that promotes activities and points of interest such as tourism, culture, local commerce, public services, among others.<\/p>\n

In 2018, due to needs signalled by customers with physical limitations, the company created the TOMI For All<\/em> project, with the purpose of enabling and improving the interaction experience for all users. The project is currently working to adapt TOMI to users in wheelchair, to children or those of short stature, to blind people or those having low vision, as well as to users who are deaf or cognitively impaired.<\/p>\n

Given the path of European universities towards a more accessible world, TOMI World’s Technology Director Jos\u00e9 Cardoso said that it is essential that \u00abEUNICE does not forget the issue of accessibility and addresses it,\u00bb so that it can be remembered and worked on.<\/p>\n

Regarding the technical difficulties, Jos\u00e9 Cardoso explained that the biggest challenge centres around visual difficulties. For that, they had to develop a new operating system. Currently, blind or low vision users can interact autonomously with TOMI through a navigation mode adapted to touch and sound. \u00abIn the first viable version of the system created by the team, Eduardo (a former trainee with blindness) was able to interact and do all the tasks. This was the most difficult challenge to accomplish, but the most exciting,\u00bb Jos\u00e9 Cardoso recalls.<\/p>\n

Adapting to cognitive difficulties has proven to be a complex task. According to Cardoso, the team is still looking for solutions in addition to the simplification already carried out in terms of making content, news and events optimised for easier comprehension. As for inclusion and accessibility in Europe, Jos\u00e9 Cardoso said that the market is pressuring for accessibility to be considered as an important factor. \u00abDue to legislation and collective awareness, it’s becoming difficult not to address these concerns,\u00bb he stressed. \u00abMost of the problems of exclusion come from forgetting that different people exist, which is why it’s important to address this issue.\u00bb<\/p>\n

The TOMI device stands out for its focus on the user and their needs, offering useful information such as tourist attractions, restaurants, hotels, local news and much more. There are currently around 170 devices installed and they are present in four countries: Portugal, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=\u00bbmedium\u00bb open_new_tab=\u00bbtrue\u00bb button_style=\u00bbregular\u00bb button_color_2=\u00bbAccent-Color\u00bb icon_family=\u00bbiconsmind\u00bb text=\u00bbCheck more internship opportunities\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/internships.eunice-university.eu\/en\u00bb icon_iconsmind=\u00bbiconsmind-Information\u00bb][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
