OmniPath: A Multi-Modal Agentic Framework for Auditing Wheelchair Accessibility
For a wheelchair user, a standard blue line on a map is often a broken promise. While platforms like OpenStreetMap (OSM) successfully capture where a path is, they frequently fail to convey how it physically feels to travel on it.
