Summary: Smart city services can have a ripple effect beyond improving physical accessibility for persons with disabilities, those with age-related disabilities and those with specific needs. Persons with disabilities can benefit from more efficient and sophisticated city services through smart city services. Thus, it is an important opportunity to improve the quality of life using city functions equivalent to those without disabilities. However, as seen in many other use cases of ICTs, without consideration for persons with disabilities from the design stage, it is bound to be another barrier for persons with disabilities. Using a two-layer structure of accessibility consideration principles, this Technical Report provides development guidelines to be considered at each layer to implement accessible smart city services. Also, exemplar accessible smart city services are illustrated in the appendix.
