VIDBE-Q Volume 65 Issue 1 (APH) also played a leading role in at Mobility Matters, not only by presenting on their efforts to build more accessible communities but in co- leading a mobile tour of the Millar Library where beacons connected to OpenStreetMap via Indoor Explorer are supporting better access for travelers with visual impairment. From preliminary research that was presented at Mobility Matters, 2019, researchers at PSU found that while there are many kinds of wayfinding apps in general, adults who are visually impaired or deafblind often must use multiple apps to find the environmental information needed while navigating through urban settings (Swobodzinski & Parker, 2019).
