ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM
The last few years have seen amazing technological breakthroughs in software and hardware alike. Join us for the 5-year anniversary of the XR Access Symposium, hybrid in New York for the first time since 2019, and learn about how these technological advancements can be used to make virtual, augmented, and mixed reality (collectively XR) more accessible for people with disabilities.
This 1.5 day conference will take place on June 15-16 at the Verizon Executive Education Center on Cornell Tech campus in New York City, with sessions broadcast online. We’ll feature expert speakers on artificial intelligence, haptics, industrial design, and more, as well as breakout sessions for you to share your own insights.
We welcome all researchers, advocates, content creators, and accessibility practitioners to join us in pushing forward the state of the art of XR accessibility!
