Abstract

This paper presents a framework of intelligent disability services built upon deployed Wi-Fi networks. The framework utilizes the availability of Wi-Fi hotspots in many office buildings and public areas to establish ubiquitous computing environment. Context and service delivery via wireless communication are addressed as an approach for assisting persons with physical retardation. Then, we discuss a framework setting which should facilitate the adoption in both public and private organizations. Finally, a proof-of-concept framework is developed based on a Linux-based Wi-Fi router and a Wi-Fi mobile phone.
