Accessibility Committee

Accessibility (AX) is key to ensuring that devices and products are usable by as many people as possible, regardless of physical or cognitive differences. Although there are extensive AX guidelines for digital content on traditional displays (such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), see-through AR (STAR) displays pose unique challenges for visual accessibility, and, to our knowledge, there are no published industry best practices for AR devices. The AR Alliance has an opportunity to guide the AR industry towards accessible design decisions for the ~20% of people with AR-relevant disabilities.
