Assistive mobile application for support of mobility and communication of people with IDD

This paper describes the mobile application 'Travel and Communication Assistant' which supports the mobility and communication of people with Intellectual and Development Disabilities (IDD). This application provides the possibility to people with IDD to independently perform a known route (for example a route from home to the day care center, from home to the baker's, etc.) under the remote supervision of their caregivers and to communicate with them using text, voice and pictogram messages.
