Accessibility Challenges in Smart Tourism: Demonstration of Accessibility of Smart Tourism Through Prototypes

To ensure tourism is accessible to all, we conducted a study on accessible tourism. We analyzed the implementation of information technology in smart tourism and smart cities, and evaluated the associated issues. To conduct our research, we developed a prototype tourism application for urban walking. Through operational testing, we identified specific problem areas. Our findings suggest that smart tourism technology can be utilized for accessible tourism, however, when designing the system, it is imperative to prioritize accessibility considerations.departmental bulletin pape
