Accessibility
The NBCC Mobile First Technology initiative (MFTi) is interested in
- Improving the accessibility of mobile information and communication technologies (ICT), and
- Leveraging mobile software and hardware technologies to develop novel, assistive and adaptive solutions for people who have physical, language, or cognitive impairments.
MFTi has developed a patent-pending audio adapter that improves the accessibility of certain types of mobile apps during telephone calls. MFTi also performs an ongoing review of accessibility issues in mobile ICT in its annual reports.
