Tender description
Supply of Remote Electronically Automated Communication Trigger (REACT) personal use fobs. These fobs communicate with hardware installed in Real Time Passenger Information (RTPI) displays fitted within bus shelters, providing visual and audio announcement of next buses due at the bus stop. The systems have been designed by REACT Accessibility Ltd in partnership with Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB). The provision of audio announcement devices aids partially sighted travellers, ensuring inclusion in accessible public transport and prevents technological exclusion of vulnerable customers who cannot use other technologies such as Smartphones. Keywords: Assistive Technology, Accessibility Devices for the Blind
