Digital Accessibility for Disabilities Usability and User Interface Design Assistive Technology in Communication and Mobility

Abstract

Great strides have been made in improving the accessibility of the Web to persons with disabilities. This has been largely possible through the efforts of the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) and the development of Web standards and guidelines that promote the creation of content, authoring tools and user agents that are accessible. Given that the Web and related technologies are a dynamic proving ground for user interface research, ensuring that these new developments are usable to the widest possible audience can be a challenge, to both the research community and the end-user. The W3C WAI Research and Development Interest Group (RDIG) was chartered to examine emerging, web related technologies, still in the research stage and, through a series of virtual workshops, explore how accessibility can be incorporated at an early stage to ensure all users can benefit from promising developments, (e.g., technologies coming from the area of ubiquitous computing or multimodality).This SIG will examine the progress of RDIG and encourage discussion by interested CHI researchers on the role of accessibility in their work.
