Accessible Virtual Reality

We present SeeingVR, which enables users with low vision to better enjoy VR and complete tasks more quickly and accurately. It consists of a set of 14 tools that enhance a VR application for people with low vision by providing visual and audio augmentations. A user can select, adjust, and combine different tools based on their preferences. SeeingVR enables developers to increase their applications’ accessibility using a simple Unity Toolkit, or modify existing VR applications via a plugin.
