This is not accessible. I don't live in Philly, but I have a strobe sensitivity and visual motion sensitivity, and many ads hurt, scramble my senses, and leave me with post-ictal migraines. Also many safety signals make my stumble or fall down, and can leave me with post-ictal nausea, sometimes vomiting. If these kiosks are firing ads at people who are standing up, they will cause similar symptoms. I doubt the rest of the system is accessible either…
P.S. Remember that photosensitive people aren’t allowed to drive. Not being able to take the bus or subway either doesn’t help.
