Jaqyn addresses the challenge of making cities safe and accessible for neurodiverse children who experience sensory overload, disorientation, and anxiety in urban environments. Our solution is an inclusive assistive system centered on a lightweight wearable belt with four directional vibration motors and multisensor telemetry (accelerometer, heart rate, skin conductance/humidity, temperature). The belt provides intuitive, screen-free tactile navigation and calming while continuously monitoring physiological signs of stress. It pairs with an AI-powered mobile app that offers two modes: a child-facing navigation mode delivering step-by-step haptic cues, and a parent-facing dashboard with real-time location, movement history, geofencing, SOS alerts, and predictive risk analytics.
We plan phased implementation starting with prototyping and clinical validation, followed by a pilot in Astana’s inclusive schools and family cohorts to refine vibration patterns, sensor thresholds, and AI models. Jaqyn empowers children to travel more independently, reduces parental anxiety, and generates longitudinal, anonymized data to improve urban safety and accessibility. By combining behavioral science, low-impact hardware, and predictive analytics, Jaqyn creates a scalable, humane pathway to more inclusive cities.
