If yes, what are the barriers and opportunities for using these types of innovations in urban community development ?
ICTs are definitely an efficient means for social innovations. The main issue is that some of these innovations might be good for some actors and worrysome for others. You can find some examples in the following publications:

ICT comes under Institutional factor includes Mobile phone access, Telecommunications, cosmopoliteness etc could help to transform the new technologies in the society.
ICT is a medium through which the user can access the variety of technological benefits to shape up their businesses.
The technological innovation have great impact in its usages.
Dear Zahed Yousefi , nice question. To answer your question you need to think about how to study these factors in creating and promoting social innovations like information and communication technologies.
One way is to consider reserach using technology acceptance models. I like to refer to Technology Acceptance Model 3 and a Research Agenda on Interventions, Decision SciencesVolume 39 Number 2 May 2008 by Viswanath Venkatesh & Hillol Bala AND Consumer Acceptance and Use of Information Technology: A Meta-Analytic Evaluation of UTAUT2 Kuttimani Tamilmani & Nripendra P. Rana & Yogesh K. Dwivedi, published innformation Systems Frontiers https://doi.org/10.1007/s10796-020-10007-6.
Secondly you can study "what are the barriers and opportunities for using these types of innovations in urban community development".
Mind that you have to consider two questions. The first question not to be answered by a simple yes (or no).
Kind regards.
Thanks for putting the question.

if there is a constant work of appropriating information and communication technologies with children, I believe that there will be a promotion of social innovation because there will be a comparative base and new needs to be filled. however, with the appropriation and work in ICT with adults, there will also be an increase in the perception of the possibilities of social innovations. it is clear that the person who is born in technology has greater difficulty in perceiving it.
It is a important factor in creating and promoting social innovations. ICT are one of the pathways of innovation in the third and fourth industrial revolution specially when you use the general-purpose technologies(GPT) like: electricity, telephone, transistor, Internet, IA . Historical evolution of GPTs and tech innovations can in this perspective be described as a sequence of development blocks in time. Also, in time barriers to adopt them are lower (better and cheaper mobile phone access, universal Telecommunications, % internet penetration, Optic fiber, digitalization) and the opportunities for using these types of innovations in urban community development grown (ICT in bussiness, education, health, industry, social innovation, smart cities, 4.0 Industries)
