Christos Kouroupetroglou of Caretta-Net Technologies is co-chairing the online symposium on Accessible Way-Finding Using Web Technologies organized by the Web Accessibility Initiative of W3C. The symposium will take place on the 3rd of December 2014 which is also the world day for people with disabilities.
Accessible Way-Finding Using Web Technologies brings together researchers, practitioners, and users with disabilities, to explore new and on-going research and development in accessible way-finding using web technologies. It examines different technologies, applications, concepts, and solutions that help people with disabilities orient themselves, explore, and navigate through the physical world. The goal of this symposium is to explore current state-of-the-art in accessible way-finding, better understand the accessibility needs and preferences of people with disabilities, and explore promising web technologies and developments to provide accessible way-finding.
