Q

What is the principle, Equitable Use?

A

The design of the product or environment should be useful and marketable to everyone regardless of his or her abilities. If possible, everyone should be able to use the environment or product in the same manner. If identical uses are not provided, then equivalent options should be provided.

Q

What is the principle, Flexibility in Use?

A

The design of the product or environment should provide people with a variety of options for use of its features. The environment or product should be adaptable to an individual’s preferences and abilities.

Q

What is the principle, Simple and Intuitive Use?

A

The purpose of the product or environment’s features should be easy to understand. A person’s background, language, or experience should not hinder his or her understanding of how to use the product or navigate the environment.

Q

What is the principle, Perceptible Information?

A

Information about the product or environment’s design should be communicated effectively and should be perceivable to everyone. A person’s sensory abilities should not hinder him or her from receiving information. Information should be presented in different formats to increase effective communication to individuals with diverse abilities.

Q

What is the principle, Tolerance for Error?

A

The design of the product or environment should reduce the chances of accidents or hazards from occurring. The design should also anticipate any unintentional actions that may occur during use.

Q

What is the principle, Low Physical Effort?

A

The design of the product or environment should require little to no physical effort to use. A person should be able to use the product or navigate the environment comfortably without feeling fatigued during use or after use.
