The National Institute of Design (NID) of India and Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology and The University of Tokyo (RCAST) has announced a new collaborative research initiative to explore an open, common user interface platform for mobile devices, to make them easier to use for the elderly, and illiterate or semi-illiterate populations in developing countries.
As the world's infrastructure becomes increasingly digital and governments around the world provide information and services via Web sites, it's critical that the Internet be accessible to all people, including those who are illiterate, blind, deaf, or elderly. The aim of the collaborative research is to help make this possible.
