The project aims to revolutionize the accessibility and inclusivity of smart buildings and smart cities with the groundbreaking Universal Accessibility Suite initiative. By leveraging advanced technologies and innovative solutions like AI, BIM, and GIS, AccesS aims to create barrier-free environments, facilitate smooth mobility, and enable equal access to essential services and facilities. Furthermore, AccesS aspires to deliver innovations supporting the inclusive, adaptive, and sustainable operation of the built environment in order to optimize building operations in an adaptive manner depending on the needs of its users and addresses e-mobility and micro-mobility to facilitate accessible and inclusive transportation options.
