Project Overview
This project explores how accessibility-first design can significantly improve user experience in smart parking systems for individuals with dyslexia. Many existing parking and navigation systems rely heavily on dense text, complex layouts, and time-critical decisions, creating unnecessary stress for neurodiverse users.
The solution focuses on reducing cognitive load and improving navigation confidence through intuitive, inclusive, and human-centred interface design.
Project Results & Visual Output
Below are examples of visual outputs and interface designs demonstrating the accessibility-focused solutions for dyslexic users, including parking guidance visuals, dyslexia-friendly typography, and auditory feedback integrations.
