Developing an application for mobile phones, to guide people with disabilities, within the premises of the Agricultural University of Athens

The Agricultural University of Athens’ Career Center “Under the framework of Implementation of the Action: “Support for Interventions of Social Welfare Services about Students of the Agricultural University of Athens”, (MIS) 5045556 within the Operational Program, entitled: “Human Resources Development, Education and Lifelong Learning”, co-financed by the European Social Fund (ESF)”, has created an application for mobile phones that facilitates the access of people with disabilities in the Agricultural University of Athens (AUA), including the departments of Thebes, Amfissa and Karpenisi.

Given that the Agricultural University of Athens includes 28 building complexes in which many auditoriums, laboratories and classrooms are located, for the teaching and training of students, it was considered important that the application be as simplified as possible for the user, and accessible according to his disability. More specifically, for deaf students there is the virtual presentation while blind students can will be guided with audio recitation.

The application is available on the play store at the following hyperlink: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aua.geoponiko&pli=1&fbclid=IwAR3g22Qp5BLrrelLOgk4mFECY7TXEgKuArfikqeUQj6vb8CjMETsJqC_pVQ
