Abstract

The Internet of Everything (IoE) is the networked connection of people, data, processes and things. Accessibility for All in Tourism is a project that aims to study the "accessibility for all" has a quality attribute in sustainable mobility, senior tourism, social inclusion and territorial marketing. It considers the needs of the elderly and other people with reduced mobility. This paper presents one of the project aims, a study about an IoE eco-friendly, accessible and smart bus stop that can adapt itself to each different user, or group of users.
