Implementação de gamificação no aplicativo visibility

Abstract

In recent years, the increase in the number of people with limited mobility has made identifying accessible places to facilitate displacement and avoid possible barriers a critical task. In this sense, through an application based on maps and crowdsourcing, collaborative marking of locations is a viable alternative to maximize the identification of establishments and roads endowed with architectural resources that favor access. That is the premise of the Visibility application, which uses a map system to mark accessible locations and parking spaces for people in wheelchairs. This work aims to report the process of introducing gamification techniques to improve the engagement and motivation of the Visibility users to collaborate in marking places. Here we present the gamification techniques chosen, the implementation choices, and the results obtained so far.
