Abstract Smart City Projects are getting more and more attention from the academy, industry and government in a global scale. We investigate some problems People with Disabilities (PwD) face in the urban space; we also observed some improvements that assistive technology should have in order to assure autonomy and independency to each and every citizen. We walked along 1 km in the downtown area of Sao Paulo taking pictures and recorded a range of difficulties that impaired persons, elderly people, pregnant women and so forth can have while trying to orient themselves in metropolises. The results of this observation are the principles of a broader view of Smart Cities: Inclusive Smart Cities.
