“Smart City Walk” mobile app

The “Smart City Walk” mobile app is developed by the Hong Kong Blind Union. The App provides audio and text navigation for some outdoor and indoor venues in Hong Kong which allows people-in-need to walk around independently. Venue partners include government departments, shopping malls and hospitals. HKMU and its Library are the first higher education institution and library in Hong Kong to participate in the “Smart City Walk” project. The App can help users to know the major services provided by the Library, identify his/her current location in the Library and provide navigation to the specific destination.

To learn more about the project, please go to the Jockey Club Smart City Walk Project website.
To download the App, please go to App Store / Google Play.
