Abstract

Along with the proliferation of the Internet, more elderly and disabled persons will use the Internet, thus making the Web accessibility increasingly important. Moreover, it will be necessary to check Web accessibility with the creation of the Web pages. We developed "Fujitsu Accessibility Assistance", which is a group of software tools that supports the enhancement of Web accessibility so that as many people as possible can access information and services. Fujitsu Accessibility Assistance consists of the following three software products: "WebInspector" diagnoses the readability of Web pages by persons with visual disabilities and those with color blindness. "ColorSelector" enables web designers to select the most suitable combinations of background color and character color for real-time design. "ColorDoctor" simulates the manner in which the coloring of characters and video images on Web pages are visible to color-blind persons.
