Tasluf, Ishan, Salim, Angelina​

• Social spaces are often not designed inclusively.​
• People with disabilities face physical, sensory, and social barriers in events or parties.​
• Lack of awareness and empathy from others creates unintentional exclusion.​
• Disabled persons often do not have the nudge to visit social places due to perceived exclusion​

Guest with Mobility Impairment

• Arrival: Sarah arrives in a wheelchair and taps her RFID card. The door opens automatically, and the screen displays: “Welcome, Sarah!”​
• During the party: She navigates easily with visual LED cues guiding her to quieter areas. Sound levels are kept comfortable thanks to noise alerts.​
• Unordered List ItemLeaving: Before leaving, she taps her RFID again at the empathy station, earning a “Thank you for joining us” message and a score update.​

Abled Guest Becoming More Aware

• Arrival: Sarah walks in and notices the door opening for Jack. He sees the welcome message and smiles.​
• During the party: She gets a sound warning on the LCD when the room gets too loud, prompting him to turn down the speaker.​
• Leaving: She helps a guest find the restroom using the LED guide. Scanning his RFID tag, she sees “Thanks for making it inclusive!” on the screen — and feels good about it.

Deaf Guest Experiencing the Party

• Arrival: Lina scans her RFID; the LCD says: “Welcome, Lina! Let the good vibes roll ”.
• During the Party: She feels music through buzzers, sees it with RGB lights synced to rhythm. Noise & gas sensors warn of crowd intensity with fun LCD notes like “Let’s chill a bit ”. LED paths help her move around independently.
• Departure: She checks out at the LCD screen, greeted with: “Thanks for lighting up the party! ”

An interactive, sensor-enabled party environment that promotes awareness, accessibility, and inclusion​​

• RFID + Servo Motor: Automated, accessible door entry​RGB Lights + Sound Sensor: Sensory-friendly noise awareness | Fire Alarms.​
• LCD + Motion Sensor: Displays empathy prompts and messages​
• Buzzer + RGB: Music translated into vibration & color for deaf guests​
• LED + IR Sensor: Visual navigation aid for visually impaired guests​
• Temperature, humidity, gas sensor, LCD: Air quality check (smoke, overcrowding); encourages fresh air breaks for people with asthma or sensory issues

How does it relate to Smart Cities?​

• Inclusive urban design, aligned with UN SDG #11 (Sustainable Cities & Communities, target 11.7)​

Indicator 11.7.1: Average share of the built-up area of cities that is open space for public use for all, by sex, age and persons with disabilities

How does it affect Behaviour Change?​

• Improves accessibility, which creates opportunities for disabled people to join and have fun. Ultimately, encourages people to invite and consider people with disabilities.
• Builds empathy through interaction: stories, prompts, and sensory immersion.

What kind of Nudges are used?

• By using lights, sounds, and simple interactions, the system creates a new normal where inclusive behavior becomes easy, visible, and natural for both disabled and abled people.​
• Disabled people become more open to socialize

The Smart Inclusive Social Space is an IoT-enabled interactive space designed to foster inclusion, empathy, and accessibility for people of all abilities during social events. Our solution provides a multi-sensory, data-driven environment where both disabled and abled individuals can interact in a thoughtful, barrier-free, and inclusive setting. Through the use of sensors, actuators, and real-time feedback, the system not only assists guests with specific needs but also nudges abled individuals toward empathetic behaviors — making inclusion the new normal.

Here’s a breakdown of the key features and technologies we implemented:

1. Accessible Entry System

• Technology: RFID + Servo Motor + LCD
• Functionality: Guests use an RFID card to check in. The system recognizes the user, displays a personalized welcome message on the LCD, and opens the door automatically via a servo motor.

Impact: Removes physical entry barriers; provides a personalized, welcoming experience.

2. Empathy Station

• Technology: RFID + LCD
• Functionality: Before leaving, guests scan their RFID cards to receive a tailored “thank you” message and encouragement based on their interaction level.

Impact: Promotes reflection, reinforces inclusive behavior through positive reinforcement.

3. Environmental Comfort Monitoring

• Technology: Sound Sensor + Gas Sensor + Temperature & Humidity Sensor + LCD
• Functionality: The system monitors noise levels, air quality, and crowd density. If thresholds are exceeded, a message is displayed on the LCD to prompt corrective action (e.g., opening a window or reducing music volume).

Impact: Ensures a safer and more comfortable environment, especially for guests with asthma or sensory sensitivities.

4. Navigation Assistance

• Technology: IR Sensor + LEDs
• Functionality: LED light paths are triggered to help visually impaired users navigate the space.

Impact: Enhances independence for guests with visual disabilities.

5. Multi-Sensory Party Feedback

• Technology: RGB Lights + Buzzer + Sound Sensor
• Functionality: Music is visually and tactically represented through RGB lights and buzzers to help deaf or hearing-impaired guests experience rhythm and ambiance.

Impact: Provides an immersive and inclusive experience for those with hearing loss.

6. Inclusive Prompts and Visual Nudges

• Technology: LCD Screens + Sensors
• Functionality: During the party, screens display friendly prompts (e.g., “Let’s keep it calm for everyone”) when the environment becomes too noisy or crowded.

Impact: Creates real-time behavioral nudges for abled guests to be more considerate.

1. Personalized Profiles: To use RFID or user logins to load each individual's preferences (e.g., display language, audio volume, etc.) and adapt the environment accordingly. Also, in the case of smart offices, which allow personalized work environments (smart lighting, climate, adjustable desks), each user tailors their workspace for comfort and productivity.

2. Gamification & Sustainable Feedback: Integrate real-time environmental feedback and game-like incentives. Display metrics (energy use, air quality, waste) and award points or challenges for eco-friendly actions. Studies show that gamified energy feedback – giving points and friendly competition – significantly boosts motivation to conserve energy. This encourages behavioral change toward sustainability.

This analysis maps the transition from initial behaviors to desired outcomes, highlighting the impact of our solution on disabled and non-disabled guests.

Behavioral Change Analysis: From Initial Behavior to Desired Impact

1. Initial Behaviors

• Limited Inclusivity in Social Spaces: Social events often lack accommodations for individuals with disabilities, leading to their exclusion.
• Lack of Awareness: Non-disabled individuals are usually unaware of the challenges faced by disabled guests, resulting in unintentional exclusion.
• Reluctance to Participate: Disabled individuals have been observed to avoid social gatherings due to anticipated barriers and lack of support.

2. Intervention Mechanisms

Our solution introduces several features aimed at fostering inclusivity:

• RFID-Based Access: Automated doors and personalized greetings enhance accessibility and make guests feel welcomed.
• Sensory Feedback Systems: LED cues, buzzers, and LCD messages provide real-time feedback on environmental conditions, aiding navigation and comfort.
• Empathy Stations (LCD Messages): Interactive stations encourage guests to reflect on inclusive behaviors, promoting empathy and awareness.
• Environmental Monitoring: Sensors are configured to track noise levels, air quality, and crowd density, and dangerous conditions such as fire outbreaks ensuring a comfortable environment for all guests.

3. Behavioral Outcomes

• Enhanced Participation: Disabled guests feel more comfortable attending events, leading to increased social engagement.
• Heightened Awareness: Non-disabled guests become more conscious of inclusivity, adjusting their behaviors to support others.
• Community Building: The inclusive environment fosters a sense of belonging and mutual respect among all attendees.

4. Sustainability of Behavioral Changes

• Reinforcement Through Feedback: Real-time cues and positive reinforcement encourage the continuation of inclusive behaviors.
• Normalization of Inclusivity: As inclusive practices become standard, they are more likely to be adopted in other social contexts.
• Scalability: The modular design of the system allows for adaptation and implementation in various settings, promoting widespread behavioral change.

Overall, by addressing the initial barriers to inclusivity and implementing targeted interventions, our solution aims to effectively promote positive behavioral changes through improved inclusive interventions. These changes not only enhance the immediate experience of guests but also contribute to a broader cultural shift towards inclusivity and empathy in social settings.
