As software developers and engineers struggle to find the "killer app" and
create new applications that even a techno-phobe can use, new breakthroughs
may be found from an unexpected source. Recently, companies are discovering
that they can incorporate design needs for people with disabilities into
their applications for all users. This approach, called "Universal Design,"
permits more universal access for all. Deborah Kaplan and Betsy Bayha, both
of WID, will describe "electronic curb cuts" and give examples of Universal
Design applications.
