>Oracle's mission is to help people see data in new ways, discover 
>insights, and unlock endless possibilities. As part of our 
>accessibility commitment, we include blind or low vision (BLV) 
>people across the entire design process to help us make Redwood much 
>more accessible. This will help us build foundational knowledge 
>about BLV users, identifying opportunities for design, iterating on 
>ideas inflight, and ultimately evaluating what we've built. 
>Specifically, the goal of the research is to understand the needs, 
>challenges, and pain points of BLV users in the workplace, and as 
>they relate to complex data consumption.
