[blindlaw] Accessibility of interactive / point-of-sales (POS) devices

[AZNOR99 at aol.com]

Everett,
 
Please feel free to contact my colleague, Lauren McLarney, concerning some  
new legislation that has just been introduced in the House and will 
hopefully  soon be introduced in the Senate.  This legislation will require a study 
to  determine the most appropriate manner in which to make new technology, 
including  Point of Sale Keyoskes accessible.  The legislation is a bit more 
 complicated than that, but Lauren is our point person on this issue.  She  
can be reached at 410-659-9314 Ext. 2207.
 
Regards,
Ronza

Good  morning,

I am doing research into interactive devices, particularly  point-of- 
sales / Interac / Debit (POS) devices.  I am looking for  resources,  
from any jurisdiction, of the following varieties to  inform my report:

1. Examples of accessible POS or similar  devices.

2 Any standards and guidelines for the accessibility of POS or  similar  
devices.

3. Laws that mandate the full, or partial,  accessibility of POS or  
similar devices.

4. Examples of  successful use of laws to enforce the accessibility of  
POS  devices.

I will publicly post the list of resources that I collect for  reuse.

Thank you in  advance,
Everett
