In 2018, Microsoft announced AI for Accessibility, a program committed to empowering people living with disabilities. Its focus has been on harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to improve assistive technologies and solutions with disability communities, through grants and collaboration.
Through a newly launched Accessibility Innovation Toolkit Microsoft wants to help organizations start thinking about accessibility and create a framework for accessibility innovation. It includes practical tips, along with examples, case studies, and some of the datasets and research currently available.
