Accessibility guidelines for 360° learning spaces in 3DVista

360° online learning environments that built in 3DVista might be challenging to access for people with some health conditions or impairments. These guidelines support authors in getting the best from the platform as of today.

3DVista Accessibility Guidelines for 360° virtual spaces.

Digital accessibility is very important and becomes an undoubtful asset for many services, virtual spaces and communication channels. As Online Hybrid Lab we would like to support all kinds of developments towards a better digital accessibility of online learning spaces for Aalto community and beyond. 

We are happy to introduce the collaborative effort of both academic and practics, the 3DVista Accessibility Guidelines. 

By the link you will find an Aalto Wiki page with the summary of accessibility guidelines following EN 301 549 and WCAG 2.1 standards/guidelines and how to implement them by using 3DVista. The initial document has been created by Gottfried Zimmermann, ,  towards ThingLink and it has been modified according to  by Samuel Girmay.
