OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMIESTRANSPORTATION RESEARCH BOARD
Transportation Research Board(TRB) is one of six major divisions of the National Research Council, which serves
as an independent adviser to the federal government and others on scientific and technical questions of national
importance, and which is jointly administered by the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of
Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine. The mission of the Transportation Research Board is to provide leader-
ship in transportation innovation and progress through research and information exchange, conducted within a
setting that is objective, interdisciplinary, and multimodal. The Board is supported by state transportation depart-
ments, federal agencies including the component administrations of the U.S. Department of Transportation, and
other organizations and individuals interested in the development of transportation.
Each year, TRB’s varied activities engage more than 7,000 engineers, scientists, and other transportation
researchers and practitioners from the public and private sectors and academia, all of whom contribute their
expertise in the public interest by participating on TRB committees, panels, and task forces. Others get involved
and support TRB activities by becoming a TRB Affiliate; participating in TRB-sponsored conferences and work-
shops; authoring technical papers and contract research reports; and more.
TRB's Committee on Accessible Transportation and Mobility (ABE 60)The Committee's mandate is to educate everyone on the issues and gaps related to mobility needs for people with
limited transportation options - people with mobility, sensory and cognitive disabilities; older adults; and individuals
without private transportation. With a large proportion of our population reaching their golden years, the Commit-
tee is dedicated to ensuring mobility options that will provide older adults with a high level of accessibility and
affordability. The Committee has a global focus and broad international representation.
Providing accessible transportation enables all individuals to participate fully in an active community life. Accessi-
ble transportation through universal and inclusive design is one of the key messages the Committee communi-
cates to various groups involved in providing seamless, accessible transportation.
The TRB Committee on Accessible Transportation and Mobility works closely with other TRB Committees to
collaborate and sponsor joint activities.
People interested in participating as a friend of the Committee or as a prospective member are encouraged to join
us for our annual Committee meeting, or participate in one of our Subcommittee meetings (Policy and Practice,
Research, and Accessible Transportation Technology). All meetings are held each January at the TRB Confer-
ence in Washington, DC.

Dear guests and friends,
Since the United Nations passed the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) in December 2006, Eden has been proactively promoting the spirits underlying every right protected by the Convention. Eden has spared no effort in constructing and offering both persons with disabilities and the elderly with comprehensive services. Furthermore, it is our mission to exchange viewpoints and experience on this globally significant issue with the international community. We feel greatly privileged to organize the 15th International Conference on Mobility and Transport for Elderly and Disabled Persons in 2018, which will be held at the Taipei International Convention Center from November 12th to 15th.
The theme of the conference is “Mobility for All: Connecting the World with Accessible Transportation.” Starting with a plenary lecture, the conference continues with a variety of discussions, in which researchers, practitioners, service providers, policy planners, educators, and experts in the field of aging from around the world are invited to discuss the latest on accessible transportation. Formats will include keynote speeches, topic discussions, thesis poster exhibitions, practical on-site exhibits. Workshops focusing on special issues will allow participants to gain awareness and understand academic application, industry exchange and experience sharing from various relevant fields in the world. These exchanges will in turn create a common platform for brainstorming and learning, bringing forth the multifaceted thinking and innovative development of industry, the public sector, and academia.
We sincerely invite you to participate at TRANSED 2018, a great opportunity for synergy in the fields of academia, cutting edge technologies and enterprises connect and network. Through the research presentations, booth exhibitions and promotional materials in the conference manual, participants will gain a broader global perspective of this issue, with the aim to creating exchange and mutual benefits. We look forward to your active support, participation and sponsorship. Together, we will drive the general public in Taiwan to seriously regard the accessible environment and services, promote the exchange with international accessible network, and strive for a barrier free society, built with hearts and minds without barriers!
On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the 15th International Conference on Mobility and Transport for Elderly and Disabled Persons, we send our warmest regards and wish the greatest success for the conference.
Patrick Ying-Ping Yeh Honorary Chairperson of the Organizing Committee, TRANSED 2018

Welcome Message
Dear Guests, Colleagues and Friends,
Greetings from Eden Family!
The 15th International Conference on Mobility and Transport for Elderly and Disabled Persons, (TRANSED 2018) is scheduled to be held at Taipei International Convention Center during 12 Nov 2018 (Mon) to 15 Nov 2018 (Thu). The theme of the conference is "Mobility for all: Connecting the World with Accessible Transportation," which focuses on four main areas: 1. Accessible Transportation and Tourism in Air, Land and Water; 2. Safe & Sustainable Mobility for Elderly and Persons with Disabilities; 3. Collaboration and Coordination across Information Financial and Transportation Services; 4. Smart City Network & Smart Growth in the Asia Pacific Region and Worldwide.
Held every two or three years, TRANSED series of conferences are milestone events in the field of accessible transportation, attracting researchers, policymakers, transport operators, consumers and other specialists from around the world to share innovations and best practices in order to make transportation and mobility accessible to everyone.
From the first conference in 1978 held at Cambridge, UK, this coveted conference has been to different continents providing a platform for innovation, research and inclusive practices in mobility and transport under the aegis of the US Transportation Research Board of National Academics (TRB).
Eden Social Welfare Foundation (hereafter referred to as Eden) is deeply honored to host this prestigious triennial International Conference in Taiwan. With a phenomenal rise in the ageing population in Taiwan, it is truly significant to have the conference in Taiwan and mull over the challenges and prospects the inclusive and accessible transportation poses before the developing economies in our region.
Eden, in its 36 years of existence, has sought to accomplish the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and follow the principles of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), proactively sharing and communicating with the international community regarding the experiences of serving the older adults and the persons with disabilities. In particular, our experiences that it is “accessibility” that largely decides whether or not, the older adults, children, women who are family way, people of all sizes and dimensions and persons with disabilities, can fully participate in our society, contribute to the development of nation and reap the benefits of social inclusion.
After three years of rigorous preparation, a warm up event took place last year, with the "2017 Cooperation Forum on Accessibility & Prosperity in Cities," in which scholars and experts were invited to visit Taiwan to inspect the progress of the TRANSED 2018 preparations, and experience the accessible transportation systems in five major cities in Taiwan. The visiting experts were encouraged to see the commitment shown by the city leadership and they saw a huge potential in Taiwan’s march towards inclusive and accessible cities that are not only smart but also humane. We at Eden, sincerely hope to plan and create a platform at this international conference through the exchange of expertise and experience from various countries. With diverse presentations such as keynote speeches, panel discussions, workshops, and VR experience exhibition given by renowned subject experts, scholars and practitioners from Europe, the United States, and the Asia Pacific region, the conference is set to provide participants with a rich and innovative learning environment and enhance their professional knowledge in relevant fields, hoping to further benefit more older adults and persons with disabilities in the future!
Each TRANSED International Conference has always been an innovation milestone for accessible transportation in the global community. We sincerely invite you to attend, contribute to, partner with us, support and sponsor this remarkable event in Taiwan, to link up with the world, create a forward-looking, smart and sustainable accessible transportation and services for the older adults and persons with disabilities.
On behalf of the Eden Family & TRANSED 2018 Organizing Committee, I look forward to your participation in all forms possible, as a visitor, delegate, researcher, partner, supporter, sponsor or an exhibitor. Lets make best use of this unique opportunity and take ownership of making this coveted and unique conference a grand success.
Thank you,
Cheng Liang Chairperson of Organizing Committee, TRANSED 2018

Donkey Move Door-to-door Pickup Service to Support Long-term CareDonkey Move aims to establish a barrier-free platform to connect different stakeholders in the society,
to remove visible and invisible mobility barriers, and to create a new value exchange system. This
door-to-door pickup service platform will help to support Taiwan as Taiwan gradually becomes a super
aged society.
For a long time, the government has commissioned private enterprises to provide pickup service
for the minority groups who are receiving long-term care. However, there is no unified reservation
and dispatch system for the local governments. Hence, Donkey Move aims to become an one-stop
platform for dispatching services in various counties and cities and provide door-to-door pickup
service in the aged society.
Problem to be solved1. User: •One portal •Easy to reserve •Friendly notification

We have research community regarding improvement of mobility, which is made up of 7 companies (Fuji film, Jorudan, Kictec, Lintec, NTT-AT, Panasonic, TOA), named “Research Group of Accessible Technology for Mobility”.Here is quick information of our exhibition.
Station Signboard with Light Diffusion FilmIt realizes high legibility by making use of light source of platform. The film on a signboard controls light diffusion angle, therefore a signboard can be met passenger’s eyes much lighter even though without power supply.
Map for mobility aid with “POPITA”“POPITA” is like an invisible code with technology of digital watermark which is printed behind a pictogram on the map. It can be read by smart phone camera and provide information for passengers. Combining positioning data on the map, it will offer people with smooth guide to move.
Mechanism of Barrier-Free Information Transmission- Analog + Digital ICT=Creating Integrated Mechanism“Realizing a society of ubiquitous information for mobility” is aspired in the context of community development of security and safety. In the flow, providing information is necessary not only in the normal situation but in the emergency such as natural disaster. In case of emergency, it is recognized that certain process of providing information is important with making use of integrated technologies.

government wanted to commemorate the opening of the west coast railway and so established the
Taiwan Governor Museum on October 24, 1908. At its opening, there were more than 10,000 pieces
of collections in the museum. In 1913, funds were collected to build the Governor-General Kodama
Gentaro and Chief Civil Administrator Goto Shinpei Memorial Museum at current site. In 1915,
after two years of construction, the museum was completed. It is one of the most noteworthy public
buildings in Taiwan.
Today, the museum retains the scale it had when it opened. The collection and research continue
to focus on the research of anthropology, earth sciences, zoology, and botany. Through themed

A friendly bus service means that the service can be equally and easily accessed by everyone
including senior and disabled people. After introducing low-floor bus and bus real-time information
systems, these have facilitated a more friendly bus service in Taichung City, Taiwan. However,
for a visual impairment, it is still difficult to know when the desired bus service arrives and which
approaching bus service it is. Without supplement facility, the visual impairment could not 'see' bus
real-time information to understand bus arrival time from smartphone app and LED display on bus
stop. In addition, the visual impairment could not 'see' the approaching bus route number when they
are waiting on a bus stop. These all cause a huge barrier for blind and visually impaired people access
to bus service. It is also a crucial problem for local authority who takes the responsibility to provide an
accessible and friendly bus service for every citizen.
Taichung City will create an APP-oriented supplemented service for blind and visual impaired users.
The APP will provide an innovative interactive audio solution in real-time to inform passengers of
the arrival of bus service at bus stops. By downloading the free APP, blind and visually impaired
passengers can reserve bus service when they arrive at bus stop through the APP. The APP will
record the reservation and send the reservation to bus operation center. Standing at the bus stop,
the user's smartphone will 'speak', telling of the next arriving bus and stating its number and route
destination. Once on board, all users already have audio announcements of the next bus stop, so
route management for blind and visually impaired passengers are made easier. The bus operation
center will send a message to the bus driver, which will serve the reserved passenger, through bus
dispatching system. The bus driver will notice that there is a blind and visual impaired passenger need
to be served at which bus stop.

enterprise model and onto the international stage, the Eden Social Welfare Foundation now has 120
service stations in Taiwan, with 3,000 employees, among whom one—fifth are physically or mentally
disabled. We serve over 8,000 cases of dysfunctional families whose economic and marriage situation

provide day care for grown-ups with disabilities. Apart from meeting their needs like self-management
and socialization, we also provide training for them to learn new skills. We hope to work towards skills
in managing their daily lives and social integration to build a future based on self-reliance and self-
development for our service users.
Once they could only stay at home or wait for others to help, but after all the art classes taken in the
center, they were able to overcome their physical obstacles and depict the beautiful world in their
minds. Although they are slow and their skills are not yet perfect, they never give up. They are truly
the “Grand artists”.
With gnarled hands and shaky body, the physically disabled artists overcome all the inconveniences
with the spirit of never giving up, and paint out the splendid blue print of life and bravery with bright
colors. They are not any different from us if they long for stability and independence in life; they have
dreams and expect to have a colorful life. We together can help them to go back to the society again
