Sm@rt Technology – Smart Systems For Amputations & Paralysis
The innovative Solution
A person with amputations or paralysis without the use of their arms may lack a certain amount of independance, especially when travelling along streets and entering buildings.
At a pedestrian crossing a person may have to rely on someone else to press the push-button for them. If there is no-one around they could be waiting for a while for someone to come along.
Smart crossings and the SmartCross App make this a non-issue. The App is voice activated, specifically to assist those people who can’t press buttons for whatever reason, a person with the App running on their phone and using a Bluetooth earpiece or headphones simply says the voice command “Cross, Cross, Cross,” and the app automatically triggers the crossing to put a ‘Demand to Cross’ in, completely enhancing the lives of the people using it, and gives them independence.
The same App can be used to open electric doors fitted with our SmartSwitch Lite unit, simply by giving the same voice command.
