According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Artificial Intelligence-Based Adaptive Multi-Modal Travel Assistance System for Inclusive Tourism This invention describes an artificial intelligence-based travel assistance system configured to provide adaptive, multi-modal, and context-aware support to persons with disabilities throughout a tourism lifecycle. The system identifies a user disability profile including visual, hearing, motor, and cognitive or neurodiverse requirements and dynamically modifies interaction modes, accessibility services, and recommendation outputs accordingly. The system supports voice, text, visual, and haptic communication, obstacle awareness, speech-to-text conversion, sign language support, accessible route guidance, and structured itinerary generation. It further evaluates location, time, environmental conditions, accessibility metadata, and user-state parameters to generate personalized recommendations relating to transport, accommodation, navigation, and destination activities. The system operates in online, offline, and low-bandwidth conditions through edge-enabled processing and locally stored accessibility data. The disclosure thereby provides a unified accessibility management framework that improves autonomy, continuity, usability, and safety for inclusive tourism assistance."
