Take a deep look at accessibility as it applies to mobile and
wearables. This book covers topics within the accessibility domain
that are rarely covered or understood, despite the fact that nearly
half of the world's population uses smartphones. Moreover, by 2025,
72% of smartphone users are expected to only use smartphones to
access the internet. And yet, accessibility is often an
afterthought instead of a core principle of product development.
This book changes that.You will begin by exploring the current
landscape and policy frameworks, looking at the software product
lifecycle and how to embed inclusion from the start. You'll learn
the nuances of mobile accessibility as it applies to mobile
devices, wearables, and IoT. From there you'll move onto automated
testing, accessibility and inclusion, and the next frontiers of
emerging technology including AR and VR. There will be notes at the
end of programming examples to help those in orthogonal roles, such
as project management, understand the basics and the language to
better communicate with their engineering counterparts. Over 1
billion people in the world live with some form of disability so
it's imperative you devise a comprehensive game plan to make your
digital products accessible for all. Beyond Accessibility
Compliance is your guide to understanding the current landscape of
assistive technology and how emerging techniques are changing the
way we think about personalization and accessibility. What You'll
Learn See how people with the most common forms of disabilities use
digital products Review the basics of the product development
lifecycle and how to embed accessibility Explore tangible answers
