‘Inclusive Designing’ presents the proceedings of the seventh
Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology
(CWUAAT '14). It represents a unique multi-disciplinary workshop for
the Inclusive Design Research community where designers, computer
scientists, engineers, architects, ergonomists, policymakers and user
communities can exchange ideas. The research presented at CWUAAT '14
develops methods, technologies, tools and guidance that support
product designers and architects to design for the widest possible
population for a given range of capabilities, within a contemporary
social and economic context. In the context of developing demographic
changes leading to greater numbers of older people and people with
disabilities, the general field of Inclusive Design Research strives
to relate the capabilities of the population to the design of
products. Inclusive populations of older people contain a greater
variation in sensory, cognitive and physical user capabilities. These
variations may be co-occurring and rapidly changing leading to a
demanding design environment. Recent research developments have
addressed these issues in the context of: governance and policy; daily
living activities; the workplace; the built environment, Interactive
Digital TV and Mobile communications. Increasingly, a need has been
identified for a multidisciplinary approach that reconciles the
diverse and sometimes conflicting demands of Design for Ageing and
Impairment, Usability and Accessibility and Universal Access. CWUAAT
provides a platform for such a need. This book is intended for
researchers, postgraduates, design practitioners, clinical
practitioners, and design teachers.
