{"title":"Rethinking Our Approach to Accessibility in the Era of Rapidly Emerging Technologies.","authors":"Gregg Vanderheiden, Crystal Marte, Sina Bahram","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Accessibility has always played catch-up to the detriment of people with disabilities - and this appears to be exacerbated by the rapid advancements in technology. A key question becomes, can we better predict where technology will be in 10 or 20 years and develop a plan to be better positioned to make these new technologies accessible when they make it to market? To attempt to address this question, a \"Future of Interface Workshop\" was convened in February 2023, chaired by Vinton Cerf and Gregg Vanderheiden that brought together leading researchers in artificial intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, computer vision, and VR/AR/XR, and disability to both a) identify barriers these new technologies might present and how to address them, and b) how these new technologies might be tapped to address current un- or under-addressed problems and populations. This paper provides an overview of the results of the workshop as well as the current version of the R&D Agenda work that was initiated at the conference. It will also present an alternate approach to accessibility that is being proposed based on the new emerging technologies.</p>","PeriodicalId":520224,"journal":{"name":"Human aspects of IT for the aged population : 10th International Conference, ITAP 2024, held as part of the 26th HCI International Conference, HCII 2024, Washington, DC, USA, June 29-July 4, 2024, Proceedings.
