| Sumario: | [EN] There are a number of people with different types of disabilities (visual, cognitive, physical, etc..), Which do not have access to information on the Internet, either for lack of a user does not have a software tool that facilitates the access or lack of content is not accessible to those users. Some web applications try to make as accessible as possible through content standards created by the W3C [1] (World Wide Web Consortium), but sometimes with such standards become not enough for a user with some kind of disabilities to use these websites. The need for the Web is universal and accessible by anyone present from the beginning, as it was a requirement set forth in its design by its creator Tim Berners-Lee: "The power of the Web is In Its universality. Access by everyone Regardless of disability is an essential aspect. " Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director and inventor of the World Wide Web When we think at first we may not realize the enormous potential the internet has to impact the lives of those with disabilities. For example, before the Internet, read newspapers how blind people? Most did not because the audiotape or Braille documents were expensive and very bulky. Today, most newspapers publish their content so that it can be read by "screen readers". The Web offers unprecedented opportunities for people with limited capabilities, if care is not taken, lack of accessibility will create serious barriers that prevent their use. Despite the great potential that the Web for people with disabilities, this potential is still largely unrealized. Some Websites can only be navigate using the mouse, and only a small percentage of video or multimedia content has been subtitled for the deaf. If the Internet content is only accessible by using a mouse, what do people who cannot use a mouse? What if web developers use graphics instead of text? If screen readers can only read text, how to read graphs for blind people? By creating an architecture and a software tool based on a standard created by the W3C which arranges online information semantically so that it can be browsed by means of interfaces tailored to each type of disability we have, to a great extent, solved these problems. In this case the WAI-ARIA is the standard that underpins the project to provide guidelines on how to structure online information and INCLUSITE is the tool that is provided as an interface between the user and the web application |
