CARDIAC
The project is developing a series of roadmaps for future research and development in the area of accessible and assistive information and communication technology systems. In particular it will concentrate on:
Various techniques are being used including structured dialogue and Wiki discussion groups as well as direct contact with key players. The project team would welcome your input - please contact Prof Patrick Roe to discuss how best to use your contribution. |

Overall objective(s)
For many people with disabilities accessibility of information and communication technology systems is determined by whether they can easily operate the user interface. In recent years there have been dramatic changes in user interface design particularly for mobile and hand-held devices. In some cases this has meant that a previously accessible device is no longer accessible. A roadmap is being developed to produce:

Specific objective(s)
Technology Transfer of Assistive and Accessible Information and Communication Technology Systems Technology transfer refers to the process of taking a device, system or service from laboratory prototype to being generally available with the appropriate support available to the consumers. This has long been an area of significant concern since relatively few novel products or services for people with disabilities successfully transfer into being affordable by people with disabilities. The area of assistive technology is different from that of accessible mainstream information and communication technology systems, but there are some common problems. The Cardiac project organised a workshop in 2011 to develop a roadmap for this area. Visit the CARDIAC website to view the reports. |
