Abstract
For people who are seeing- or hearing-impaired, accessing public transit can be a daunting experience. Stop Announcement is a real-time system which aids passengers with a disability by alerting them of current and next stops with a scrolling LED sign and LCD monitor, as well as a short-wave FM transmission of stop number, intersection, and time remaining until the next stop.
