Comcast says that it has transitioned to a new global technology platform that puts accessibility features front and center for those who need them.
In 2019, Comcast debuted a unique way for people living with physical disabilities to control their TV experience using just their eyes. Now, the company is doubling down on its accessibility commitments with new features aimed at folks with reduced vision, such as increased font sizes, higher contrast visual elements, and announced text descriptions.
Just as importantly, Comcast is working on open-sourcing these components so that third-parties who develop apps for Comcast’s services can also integrate these accessibility enhancements. High-contrast color theme: A single setting change can be applied to all the components within an application, making content easier to read and navigate.
Focus state: A larger scale and increased color contrast between the background color and art highlights interactive components for accessible navigation for those with limited mobility who are using a screen reader or other accessible technology. Subtle animation will also be used to draw attention to the focus state.
