About the event
The seminar will highlight what should be considered from an accessibility viewpoint especially for disabled and older visitors when designing new technological systems for major sports events.
The event is based on the report Accessibility for visitors, by Dr John Gill, Chief Scientist of the RNIB, which calls upon Government departments, standard-setting organisations, commercial companies and user bodies to help make life easier for people with disabilities, by employing a range of the latest technologies from radio frequency identification devices to biometric systems.
Organiser
The seminar is being organised by PhoneAbility in collaboration with the IET. It is being financially supported by BERR.
