📕Intro: The AR Storybook Guide

Backed by research and birthed through prior startup experience along with a desire to learn more, the AR Storybook Guide is a set of fundamentals for creating accessible AR storybook experiences. This guide's focus is primarily on AR storybooks for children. Now, I know what you're thinking.. "Accessible? How is AR accessible?" The answer is that it's not. At least not right now. However, there is potential to make AR more accessible and it's already being studied as an assistive technology. This guide will talk more about how AR storybooks specifically could be made accessible along with some contextual considerations. For now, here is an overview of the 5 fundamentals that will be covered so far:

  • The design of the physical book itself

  • Adding instructions to the physical book

  • Properly scaling 3D objects

  • Limiting the amount of visual information displayed in a single moment

  • Providing an audible, text to speech option for vision impaired users
