It is rapidly increasing number using Hi-pass system passing through tollgate on the high way. However disabled people and man of merit have been excepted existing advantage of discount when they are using Hi-Pass. It is difficult to make a check an advantage when they are in a vehicle for using Hi-pass system technology in present. For solving this problem, we have fabricated virtual Hi-pass system combined fingerprint identification system (FIS) by AVR and fingerprint identification USB.

In recent years, UNWTO and academics have called for the development of responsible, sustainable, and universally accessible tourism to promote equal human rights and social inclusion. Prior studies have also revealed the potential and value of smart technologies in reducing, if not removing, barriers to people with access requirements during travel and in their everyday lives. However, a guiding framework of how smart technologies assist in building an accessible destination is still absent, thereby hindering the progress of building accessible tourism. This paper aims to fill this knowledge gap. A conceptual model of smart accessible destination (SAD) was proposed drawing from the intersection of accessible tourism and smart tourism. With the guidance of this conceptual model, tourism destinations and stakeholders can recognize and utilize the synergies of accessible and smart tourism to enhance the social inclusion, competitiveness, and sustainability of a destination.
