Sm@rt Technology: Revolutionising road crossings

Why not also watch these solutions in action! In our video, Mark demonstrates them at the busy crossing in Handforth.

What else does Sm@rt Technology offer?

Sm@rt Technology has also developed the Sm@rtAppVI app to help visually impaired people identify their location, along with obtaining audio descriptions of public buildings, toilets and so much more. The infrastructure for this app to work most effectively is still under development.

On top of that, both the Sm@rtCross and Sm@rtAppVI apps are free, and available on both iOS and Android.

These integrated systems are just another tool to add to your toolbox so you can be as independent as possible.

Those at Sm@rt Technology work directly with and listen to the needs of disabled people. If there’s anything that you wish was available and there’s a wide need for it, they will create it. Let’s all take control of what is and can be available for us.  This could be an exciting opportunity for improvements and inclusivity to come in.

If you would like to know more, then contact Peter Speight on LinkedIn or by email at [email protected] and he’ll be happy to help you.

We hope this blog inspires more local authorities to investigate SmartCross and make pedestrian crossings more accessible to disabled people. We also encourage you to contact your local authority to ask if this technology could be installed at your local pedestrian crossing, if you think it would benefit you or someone you know.
