商品描述

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 as to how accessibility pertains to unique roles
  • Understand the difference between compliance and usability
  • Make data visualizations accessible for blind users
  • Implement code-level changes to address gaps in accessibility
  • Build a campus programs and course material inclusive for people with disabilities

 

 

Who This Book Is For

Current developers, designers, and others building technology products with basic knowledge of front-end development. This book is also suitable for students in computer science, engineering, HCI, and related fields. Sections that are not engineering-specific are applicable to design, user research, communication, and business students who are looking to pursue careers in technology.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

深入探討無障礙設計在行動裝置和可穿戴設備上的應用。本書涵蓋了無障礙領域中鮮少被討論或理解的主題，儘管幾乎一半的全球人口使用智慧型手機。此外，預計到2025年，72%的智慧型手機使用者將僅使用智慧型手機來上網。然而，無障礙設計往往被視為附帶考量，而非產品開發的核心原則。本書將改變這一點。

您將首先探索當前的環境和政策框架，了解軟體產品生命週期以及如何從一開始就嵌入包容性。您將學習行動無障礙設計的細微差別，這些細微差別適用於行動裝置、可穿戴設備和物聯網。接著，您將進入自動化測試、無障礙和包容性，以及包括擴增實境（AR）和虛擬實境（VR）在內的新興技術的下一個前沿。在程式範例的末尾將有註解，幫助那些在正交角色（如專案管理）中的人理解基本概念和語言，以便更好地與工程同事溝通。

全球有超過10億人以某種形式生活在殘障中，因此制定一個全面的計畫，使您的數位產品對所有人都可及是至關重要的。《超越無障礙合規》是您了解輔助技術當前環境以及新興技術如何改變我們對個性化和無障礙設計思考方式的指南。

您將學到的內容：

- 了解最常見殘障人士如何使用數位產品
- 回顧產品開發生命週期的基本知識以及如何嵌入無障礙設計
- 探索無障礙設計如何與獨特角色相關的具體答案
- 理解合規性與可用性之間的差異
- 使數據可視化對盲人使用者可及
- 實施程式碼層級的變更以解決無障礙設計的缺口
- 建立包容殘障人士的校園計畫和課程材料

本書適合對前端開發有基本知識的當前開發者、設計師及其他技術產品建造者。本書也適合計算機科學、工程、人機互動（HCI）及相關領域的學生。非工程專屬的部分適用於設計、用戶研究、溝通和商業學生，這些學生希望在技術領域追求職業生涯。

作者簡介

Sukriti Chadha is a mobile developer turned product manager who currently works at Spotify. She is the only product manager responsible for accessibility across all platforms. Additionally, she works on scalable mobile infrastructure to enable reliable shipping of Spotify's mobile apps to its over 300 million users globally.

Sukriti started as a mobile developer at Yahoo Finance in 2016. When her father lost vision in one of his eyes due to complications from diabetes, it inspired her to patent, launch and open source technology that allows people with visual impairments to use charts and interpret data using music, haptics, and voice synthesis. She also developed a system for haptic navigation for people with hearing impairments.

Sukriti is an invited expert at W3C with WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), as well as the Mobile Accessibility Task Force, the industry working group that sets the guidelines that are the ISO standard for accessibility and the basis for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Her work has been presented at several conferences including CSUN (the largest annual accessibility conference), A Future Date Conference, Product-Led Festival, Mobile Growth by Branch.io, and MProduct Con. Her project on automated mobile testing for accessibility also won the Product-Led Alliance award for the most impactful project.

Sukriti is an active member of Teach Access, a collaboration of accessibility experts, industry leaders and academics with companies such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Wal-Mart to further the understanding of inclusion and accessibility among high-school and college students. As part of this initiative, she regularly collaborates with university professors who have expressed a desire to have a book like this as foundation for their design and CS courses.

She has been invited as a judge for innovation awards at CES (Consumer Electronics Show); Remarkable Accelerator, Australia; and Pursuit Hackathon. She also regularly peer reviews academic papers for HCI and accessibility journals including ICETM, Web4All and the 32nd Annual Australian HCI Conference.

Sukriti has a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering and certificate in Finance from Princeton University. She is also a private pilot and certified yoga instructor.
