ADA Software Accessibility Methods
BioSig-ID software is designed to be accessible to individuals with a wide-range of disabilities.
A brief summary of the three ADA compliant methods.
Without any accessibility options set the situation is as follows:
Primary = BioSig-ID
Secondary = Click-ID
With the ADA Motor-Skill Impaired button selected, the user experience will be as follows:
Primary = Click-ID
Secondary = CSQ (Complex Security Questions)
The ADA Vision Impaired (CSQ) button allows for support of visual impairment via:
Primary = CSQ-only
Secondary = (none)
- This option is compatible with screen reader solutions.
A person can be "Exempt", which is usually reserved for faculty, and can also be used temporary if one wants to masquerade as a student without them available to validate their BioSig-ID.
Note: The 'Exempt' button can be used to turn that part 'on' or 'off' without resetting any existing profile, but activating one of the ADA options does reset any existing profiles.
