Accessibility means easy to access and easy to approach, and indicates the extent to which a product, service or solution is available to be used by many users, including
seniors and persons with disabilities.
Necessity of Accessibility
Regulations and standards related to accessibility such as U.S. Rehabilitation Act Section 508 and Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) W3C 2.0 as well as Japan's JIS X 8341
"Design guidelines for older persons and persons with disabilities" are linked internationally, so considering accessibility has become a prerequisite of software
development and hardware manufacturing as local governments stipulate these regulations.
In a development or manufacturing process, required standards must be followed, and the number of users who may not be able to use the product must be minimized by
assuming as broad a scope of potential users as possible.
