XR Access Research Seminar | Does VR Have an Accessibility Problem?

About the Talk | In this talk we will explore the special challenges of VR with regards to accessibility. In VR and more in general spatial computing, users find themselves entering the digital content through wearables, and interacting with content with their own body. This means that if they have any bodily limitation this limitation will carry on to VR. In some cases it might even mean they won’t be able to wear the headset. In this talk we will also present some work done to deal with this challenge.

About the Speaker | Dr Mar Gonzalez-Franco is a Principal Researcher in the Extended Perception Interaction and Cognition team at Microsoft Research.

This talk was originally presented on Wednesday, February 2, 2022
