Accessibility and Positive Applied Uses of Extended Reality for Users With Reduced Mobility

Abstract

This article presents the results of exploratory research to examine the accessibility limitations that eXtended Reality (XR) presents for people with reduced mobility. The research used in-depth interviews with experts and the application of the Delphi method. In particular, we explored potential solutions to provide a more accessible and usable XR, and looked at positive applied uses of this technology in terms of improving the well-being of people with reduced mobility. The results will be used to develop a cultural and educational XR prototype.
