iStop, a company from Chicago, is introducing a new innovation to improve accessibility for the visually impaired. iStop’s new Smart Pole technology enables you to get the information you need while standing or sitting at a bus stop, train station, or any public place. iStop also combines this technology with the latest mobile devices, such as smartphones and smart phone applications, to enable people with physical disabilities to communicate with others on the move, and with technology such as voice recognition and text-to-speech software, make phone calls and send text messages while still in their mobility wheelchair.
iStop’s Smart Pole is an upgrade of the conventional bus stop pole, which makes it easier, in conjunction with a portable device for the visually impaired individual downloads onto his smartphone, to receive information. Once downloaded, the user will have access to the same information as any other person who has a smart phone and can access the Internet through the Smart Pole’s Bluetooth technology. Once the device is turned on, the user can access maps, find directions, read local news and weather forecasts, get the latest weather forecast, buy tickets, receive announcements and alerts, and receive updates on bus and train schedules.
iStop’s Smart Pole technology also includes a built-in Bluetooth speaker for hands-free communication with other people in the vicinity. The speaker lets the person using the iStop’s Smart Pole know that they are being communicated with by other people nearby. iStop’s Smart Pole speaker will allow the person using it to hear the information that is being transmitted to them and relay it to others, making it easy to learn the local news, weather forecasts, and news about events that may affect their daily routines. This is especially helpful for the person in a wheelchair who would not normally be able to carry a cell phone, as it will make it possible to listen to the information that is being transmitted to them on a regular basis.
In addition to enabling the user to stay connected, iStop’s Smart Pole will also make it possible for the disabled person to interact with others in the local area. The speaker will enable the person to interact with others while traveling by asking questions and listening to information, as well as interacting with others on the ground, such as bus or train attendants or others in line waiting to get into the bus or train.
iStop’s Smart Pole does not only provide access to information. It also provides the mobility wheelchair user with a variety of other features, including a hands-free mode of communication. iStop’s Smart Pole allows the person using the iStop’s Smart Pole to make phone calls. and send text messages to friends, family members, family, and contacts.
There are four different types of phones compatible with iStop’s Smart Pole. These include: iStop Mobile Phone, iStop Wheelchair, iStop Wireless, iStop Mobile Connects, iStop Connect, and iStop Connect. Each phone has its own unique set of features. iStop Mobile Connects and iStop Wireless phones use Bluetooth technology to connect the Smart Pole with the internet.
The iStop Mobile Connects, iStop Wheelchair, and iStop Connect phones use the iStop Mobile Connect service to access the internet and allow the mobility wheelchair user to make calls, text messages, and access the web. iStop Connect uses an infrared transmitter to transmit data signals from the iStop Mobile Connect phone and speaker to the iStop mobile application. iStop Wireless is the standard model and works with Bluetooth enabled phones.
iStop’s mobile connectivity also includes the iStop Connect service and is available on two separate lines: iStop Connect Plus and iStop Connect Basic. iStop Connect Plus provides the mobility wheelchair users with the ability to make calls from the mobile application and can be used to access a variety of online services and programs.
