A Systematic Literature Review of Handheld Augmented Reality Solutions for People with Disabilities

Abstract: Mobile applications on smartphones and tablets have become part of our everyday lives. The number of augmented reality (AR) technology applications is also increasing. Augmented reality has proven to be effective in various areas of human life, from education, marketing, and training to navigation. All people have the right to access information and use available technologies, but not everyone has the same opportunities. To contribute to the digital inclusion of people who are often disadvantaged in this regar… Show more

“…These advancements have showcased AR's capacity to seamlessly integrate digital information into the physical world, thereby offering enriched, accessible experiences to users with visual impairments. Despite these progresses, the broader scope of AR application continues to marginally address the specific accessibility needs of this demographic, primarily due to a predominant focus on visual-centric interfaces [4,7]. This oversight not only underscores a critical gap in the inclusive development of AR technologies but also highlights the pressing need for interfaces that embrace a wider spectrum of sensory inputs, thereby fostering a more inclusive user experience.…”
