While standard 2.2.7.1.3.3 is only a should, it is still oddly focused on one particular type of alternative input device “sip and puff”. It would be much more appropriate to refer to single switch input devices or some other more generic term that includes the range of alternative input devices that an Acc-VS could be designed to accept as input devices.
Specific Recommendations:
Revise 2.2.7.1.3.3
The Acc-VS should allow the use of alternative input mechanisms such as
single switch devices with scanning, joystick, or sip and puff to enable
functionally equivalent input.
Revise Discussion: This recommendation ensures that the Acc-VS is operative by a wide range of individuals with limited motor skills. All the functionality of the Acc-VS (e.g. . . . ) that is available through the other forms of input, such as tactile, must also be available through the
alternative input mechanisms compatible with the system. | |
