H2T in Municipalities
Building Smart Cities for Everyone
Enhancing Accessibility in Public Spaces & Government Buildings
Cities are meant to be accessible to all. However, navigating government buildings, parks, museums, and public spaces can be challenging for blind and visually impaired individuals. H2T (Hear2There) is transforming smart cities by providing real-time, location-based guidance, helping residents and visitors navigate their communities with greater confidence and independence.
H2T uses Bluetooth beacons and GPS technology to provide spoken navigation assistance through a smartphone app, ensuring seamless access to government offices, parks, cultural sites, and transit hubs.
