Abstract
Disability is an important area in biomedical engineering. But research on disability should not only focus on the healthcare aspects, but also on the integration of people with disabilities in the cultural and social contexts, such as the existence of architectural elements that prevent the use of common public services. The present research aims to improve accessibility and enjoyment of people with physical and motor disabilities to the tourist resources of the area of interest. We present a case study focused on the beaches of the Region of Murcia, Spain. Both the architectural and technological aspects of accessibility are analyzed. From the architectural point of view, the method includes the definition of the parameters of accessibility, and the features required for the equipment according to the local and national regulations. From the technological point of view, the tools and requirements necessary to develop the system are presented.
