Beyond Accessibility: Lifting Perceptual Limitations for Everyone
This work addresses perceptual limitations for a broad audience, including those with impairments and general users, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing accessibility research.
The paper tackles the problem of perceptual limitations by proposing that accessibility research can serve as a foundation for technology to augment perception for everyone, demonstrating this through three case studies on impaired color vision and situational visual and hearing impairments.
We propose that accessibility research can lay the foundation for technology that can be used to augment the perception of everyone. To show how this can be achieved, we present three case studies of our research in which we demonstrate our approaches for impaired colour vision, situational visual impairments and situational hearing impairment.
