According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 16% of the global population (or ~1.3 billion people) currently suffers from significant disability (World Health Organization, 2022). This statistic highlights the need for digital content and services to be accessible to people with disabilities so that they are not excluded from actively participating the digital society today (Dobransky and Hargittai, 2016). Consequently, digital accessibility is not only a social responsibility, but also essential for legal compliance, inclusion, and business benefits. It ensures that everyone, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, has equal access to digital content and services, and is an essential factor of an organization that provides digital content or services.<\/p>\n

As a part of this process, a comprehensive search strategy was created to encompass a wide-ranging search of various databases, and a manual review of the selected articles was conducted. The databases chosen for this systematic review included the ACM Digital Library, IEEEXplore, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Springer. During the research process, filtering tools were employed for every database to minimize duplication. In conducting the manual review, the broad manual review method was utilized, which entailed scanning the title and abstract of each research article (Golder et al., 2014), followed by reading the full content of the selected articles to eliminate any irrelevant ones. This systematic review, covering academic articles from 2018 to 2023, focuses on AI applications for digital accessibility.<\/p>\n
Guo et al. (2021) identified challenges related to psychological barriers, accessibility issues, the need for technical expertise in relevant areas, and the importance of user acceptance and adoption influenced by factors such as ease of use and perceived usefulness. Karyono et al. (2020) drew attention to the deficiency of a dependable predictive lighting model for visually impaired and elderly individuals, the scarcity of implementation of lighting standards, and potential barriers such as system cost and insufficient awareness. Similarly, Jayawardena et al. (2019) emphasized the challenges in enhancing the lives of visually impaired children, including the dearth of research studies, limited resources and funding, and the requirement for user-friendly, affordable systems in developing countries. The system proposed by Yang et al. (2022) showcased the utilization of Edge AI in a cost-effective manner. The combination of Edge AI and computer vision enabled the system to employ one-stage detectors and 2-D human pose estimation for non-motorized users, emphasizing the importance of edge computing in efficient real-time processing of data. Additionally, the SINAPSI device in Lucibello and Rotondi (2019) employed Edge AI, utilizing ultrasonic sensors and machine learning algorithms for 3D environmental awareness, demonstrating its application in innovative environmental awareness solutions.<\/p>\n

Through solidarity and collaboration, we can create a global community that embraces diversity, respects inclusivity, and leverages the power of digital technologies to build a better, more equitable world. Managers sit at the center of disability inclusion as conduits of company culture. Because they interact daily with their reports and sometimes support entire departments, their words and actions can make or break disability inclusion efforts. It takes a village to create an inclusive, psychologically safe environment, and that means no employee is too young, too new, or too siloed in their role to make an impact.<\/p>\n
Jayawardena et al. (2019) used computer vision for object recognition and hand gesture\/movement recognition in an educational context. In addition, Lo Valvo et al. (2021) employed Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for recognizing objects or buildings. Royal et al. (2023) developed a real-time object recognition and text extraction from images using deep learning algorithms in combination with the Pytesseract OCR Engine.<\/p>\n
This guidance helps service designers and other people working on services to consider the most important facts when starting this work. Rajasekhar and Panday (2022) implemented a 1D CNN as the deep learning model in an ASL gesture interpreter, while Thomas and Meehan (2021) employed a CNN to implement object detection in a banknote recognition system. Figure 4 depicts the distribution of the selected articles by the database source. A total of 41 articles were identified in Scopus, followed by one article each from ScienceDirect and ACM Digital databases. No articles were selected from IEEEXplore or Springer database, as they were either duplicates or had to be excluded as they did not meet the inclusion criteria during the screening process. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are global standards created by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).<\/p>\n
Every accessible piece of content you create helps build a more inclusive digital world. The analysis narrowed down to 43 articles, presenting a classification framework based on applications, challenges, AI methodologies, and accessibility standards. When you consider accessibility, inclusive outcomes become embedded in everything you produce. By removing barriers to access you can make your brand more welcoming to everyone, regardless of background or ability.<\/p>\n
Online application and hiring practices can create significant barriers for the talent pool of people with disabilities. Simultaneously, AI has made assistive technology so sophisticated that people with disabilities can dream bigger and truly thrive in the world. Automated testing can find some accessibility issues, but only manual testing will catch everything, so use your agency\u2019s standard testing tool and follow the Section 508 ICT Testing Baseline to test all code and content before publication.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll explore what digital accessibility means in practice, outline key strategic considerations, and share eight concrete ways to build workplaces that work for everyone. GSA\u2019s Government-wide IT Accessibility Program also encourages all digital product owners to include information about an organization\u2019s commitment towards providing equal access to information. For your research to be effective, your participants must be actual or likely users of your service and you must include disabled people and people who use assistive technology. Operability ensures that all users can interact with and navigate digital content and interfaces effectively.
