People have different interests and cognitive capabilities that should be taken into account when developing technological support for cultural heritage exploration. In this project, we aim to help people with autism to plan a tourist trip by taking into account their interests and their cognitive skills. We plan to personalize the suggestion of touristic places and itineraries taking into account different types of constraints such as temporal and physical ones. Moreover, we aim to adapt the user interface of the system on the basis of the users' capabilities to deliver the right information, using a proper visualization modality, avoiding information overload. In this way, people will be able to know in advance the plan for the trip and this would reduce their level of stress and anxiety. In this paper, we focus on the first stage of the project, i.e. the qualitative interviews we carried out together with the user requirements for our application.

Abstract

People have different interests and cognitive capabilities that should be taken into account when developing technological support for cultural heritage exploration. In this project, we aim to help people with autism to plan a tourist trip by taking into account their interests and their cognitive skills. We plan to personalize the suggestion of touristic places and itineraries taking into account different types of constraints such as temporal and physical ones. Moreover, we aim to adapt the user interface of the system on the basis of the users' capabilities to deliver the right information, using a proper visualization modality, avoiding information overload. In this way, people will be able to know in advance the plan for the trip and this would reduce their level of stress and anxiety. In this paper, we focus on the first stage of the project, i.e. the qualitative interviews we carried out together with the user requirements for our application.
