Understanding the Challenge
Navigating cities can be overwhelming for disabled users and people with disabilities, who face a range of physical and sensory challenges that limit safe, independent mobility. Everyday obstacles, such as steep sidewalks, uneven surfaces, narrow walkways, inaccessible ramps, and heavy manual doors—often create serious barriers to accessibility, leading to social exclusion and reduced participation in daily activities for individuals with disabilities.
Beyond physical barriers, sensory overload is a major concern for neurodiverse users and people with disabilities. Urban environments are saturated with intense stimuli, loud sounds, flashing lights, dense crowds, and chaotic visual cues, that challenge the accessibility and usability of public spaces. For many users, this overstimulation increases stress and anxiety, making public navigation uncomfortable, even unbearable, highlighting the need for accessible applications that can assist in managing these challenges.
Unfortunately, most navigation apps and tools fall short in providing accessible services. They typically lack real-time updates, offer outdated or incomplete accessibility information, and ignore the diverse sensory needs of users with disabilities. Without accurate, dynamic guidance from accessible applications, many users are left feeling uncertain and anxious about their travel routes and mobility within the community.

Without accurate, dynamic guidance from accessible applications, many users are left feeling uncertain and anxious about their travel routes and mobility within the community.
Moreover, the fear of getting lost in unfamiliar environments, such as campuses or large buildings, increases the initial stress faced by new visitors, including disabled individuals navigating such spaces with wheelchairs or other mobility aids. This phenomenon highlights the critical need for accessible applications that make orientation more intuitive and reduce anxiety through clear, accessible guidance.
Sensra bridges these critical gaps by delivering personalized, real-time navigation through its mobile application available on iOS and Android. It considers both physical and sensory accessibility, providing accurate data and information via a comprehensive web-based network. With a user-centric design, Sensra empowers individuals to move confidently through urban spaces, enhancing their journey and mobility, regaining autonomy, reducing anxiety, and fostering inclusion in the community.

Sensra also features “Meet & Assist,” enabling users to arrange support at participating venues or stations, connecting them with staff trained to assist with specific accessibility needs through live chat or scheduled help services.
To enhance safety and ensure accurate navigation indoors, Sensra incorporates detailed point-of-interest markers and intersection insights for large venues like campuses, medical centers, and shopping malls. This addition builds independence for users in environments where traditional navigation systems often fall short, leveraging the power of a robust web network and comprehensive design.

What makes Sensra different from other navigation apps?
Sensra is designed specifically with disabled and neurodiverse users in mind. Unlike traditional navigation apps, Sensra offers real-time, accessibility-focused guidance that considers both physical barriers (like steep ramps or narrow walkways) and sensory challenges (such as loud environments or bright, flashing lights). It delivers personalized routes and live updates to support a more confident, stress-free journey.
How does Sensra support users with sensory sensitivities or neurodiverse conditions?
Sensra minimizes sensory overload by offering route options and alerts tailored to user preferences—for example, avoiding crowded or noisy areas. It also uses calming visual cues and accessible design features that help reduce anxiety during travel in chaotic or overstimulating environments.
Can Sensra help users navigate large, complex spaces like campuses or hospitals?
Yes. Sensra includes indoor navigation with detailed point-of-interest markers and intersection guidance for large venues such as universities, medical centers, and shopping malls. This feature helps users maintain independence and avoid getting lost in unfamiliar or overwhelming spaces.
What is the “Meet & Assist” feature, and how does it work?
The “Meet & Assist” feature lets users arrange real-time or scheduled support at participating venues. Through live chat or pre-arranged help, users can connect with trained staff to receive tailored assistance—whether it’s navigating a building, finding an accessible entrance, or getting help with mobility challenges.
