| Abstract | The rapid advancement of AI and IoT presents unique opportunities to address the challenges faced by people with disabilities in urban environments. By leveraging these cutting-edge technologies, smart cities can create inclusive ecosystems that promote equitable access to services, infrastructure, and opportunities. The chapter begins by shedding light on the different theoretical models of disability, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses, followed by a deep dive into what is Digital Accessibility, its benefits, and the limitations of existing solutions. The chapter delves into the importance of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) principles, Web Accessibility Initiative – Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA) and its crucial role in building dynamic and accessible interfaces. Design considerations and user experience in AI and IoT-powered interfaces are explored, emphasizing the importance of creating inclusive interfaces and customization options. The chapter addresses human-centred design principles, ensuring that the basic needs of diverse consumer groups are addressed effectively. Real-world case studies illustrating the accessibility issues in the existing online travel reservation solutions are explored, and recommendations are shared to design and develop AI and IoT-based interfaces. This chapter offers valuable insights into the potential of these assistive technologies to transform smart cities into inclusive environments. It highlights the importance of collaboration, human-centred design, and privacy considerations for creating accessible ecosystems that empower people with disabilities and ensures equitable participation in urban life. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Smita Sharma, Manikandan Tirumalaisamy, Balamurugan Balusamy, Naveen Chilamkurti; individual chapters, the contributors. |
