livestreamOn Thursday Mar 11 2021 at 7pm EDT / 00:00 UTC / 9am JST (Fri) the Accessibility VR Meetup hosts ‘Accessible Virtual Reality for People with Limited Mobility‘ on Mozilla Hubs. Presenter Martez Mott is a Senior Researcher in the Ability Group at Microsoft Research. As VR technologies continue to mature, and as commercial VR systems continue to grow in popularity, an opportunity exists to understand how to incorporate accessibility as a fundamental component in the design of VR systems and applications.
