Research Study 026 / 200

Low-vision users struggle to discern product state.

Small type, low contrast, and color-only indicators compromise status recognition.

Research Focus: Ergonomics and Inclusive DesignProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Audit status information by text, color, position, and viewing distance.
  2. Combine graphics, text and sound to provide feedback through multiple channels.
  3. Test status recognition under typical lighting conditions and at different distances.

Key Deliverables

  • Status Information Guidelines
  • Feedback Concepts
  • Test Materials

Verification Approach

Compare status recognition errors and missed critical information.
