Physical Disability Discussion Group

The objective of the Physical Disability Discussion Group (PHDG) is to identify the needs and preferred access features of people with various types of physical disabilities. This group will work in conjunction with the Access Features MasterList group to determine necessary features to transform web content into a form that is usable by people with physical disabilities.

One deliverable from this group will be a list of potential solutions and an analysis of their relative usefulness to people with different physical impairments. There will be a wide range of solutions because there are many different disabilities that falls into this category, including differing degrees of paralysis, various types of tremors, muscle weakness, and many other issues. This group will communicate with software exploration, research, and development projects to experiment with new technologies and methods.
