Record URL: Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Developed under the Transportation Research Board's (TRB’s) Transit Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis (IDEA) Program, LookingBus is a smart city system that helps people with disabilities use public transportation. Internet of Things technology connects bus stops, a rider’s smartphone app, and driver alert units to help riders with disabilities use the public bus system, from finding the correct bus stop to boarding the correct bus to getting off the bus at the right stop. Drivers also are able to serve these riders more effectively. This article outlines the research and development of the LookingBus system including a pilot test conducted in Detroit, Michigan in 2018.
