Maker Faire Rome has always been one of my favorite shows. It brings makers, hobbyists and enthusiasts of all ages and genres together in one place. The ability to show the newest technology and the coolest STEM products is something that can’t be done to this caliber anywhere else. We at DigiKey are lucky to be a part of this great maker event.

Quo Vadis - Cellulare Braccialetto per persone disabili in spazi pubblici
Quo Vadis - Mobile Phone Bracelet for disabled people in public spaces
Quo Vadis is a system of guidance and monitoring for people with disabilities who are visiting public institutions and large scale facilities.
In recent years, several institutions have created routes for people with disabilities by breaking down obstacles and inserting tactile paths. However, turning around autonomously into vast spaces such as archaeological parks, natural reserves, museums, airports, hospitals and schools always have a risk of getting out of the way, dropping ,being trapped or unable to overcome an unforeseen obstacle.
The Quo Vadis Bracelet should solve this problem! At the entrance of public institutions and public buildings it will be possible to be equipped with the bracelet which is a technological garment (WT) that provides the user's position at the control room, enables a SOS call in an emergency and is equipped with Bluetooth audio guide that communicates to the user's voice messages and provides useful information based on the location.
When outside, the tracking is made via the GPS module, while inside the Wi-Fi antennas are used for positioning.
The bracelet design has endeavoured to make the technology function easy and immediate to wear, to use, to take off and to charge.
With Quo Vadis, people with disabilities can easily get into public places. These become more accessible due to this system and the risks during autonomous travel are minimized.
