Impairment-adaptive electronic data interaction system
First Claim
1. A system for dynamically adjusting content for an interaction impairment comprising:
- a data provider capable of providing access to electronic data, wherein at least one characteristic of the electronic data is incompatible with an impairment of an impaired user, wherein said at least one characteristic adversely affects an ability of the impaired user to utilize the electronic data;
an end-user electronic device configured to allow the impaired user to interact with electronic data;
a user identification module configured to identify at least one of an identity of the impaired user and the impairment of the impaired user; and
a data adjustment module configured to automatically adjust the at least one incompatible characteristic of the electronic data prior to presentation by the end-user electronic device, wherein said adjustment increases the ability of the impaired user to utilize the electronic data with the end-user electronic device, whereinthe user identification module further comprises;
an impairment profile associated with the impaired user that expresses;
acceptable limit values for a plurality of data characteristics incompatible with the impairment; and
a type of processing for handling incompatible data characteristics.

Abstract
A system for dynamically adjusting content for an interaction impairment can include a data provider, an end-user electronic device, a user identification module, and a data adjustment module. The data provider can be capable of providing access to electronic data. One or more characteristics of the electronic data can be incompatible with an impairment of an impaired user. The end-user electronic device can be configured to allow the impaired user to interact with electronic data. The user identification module can be configured to identify an identity of the impaired user and/or the impairment of the impaired user. The data adjustment module can be configured to automatically adjust incompatible characteristics of the electronic data prior to presentation by the end-user electronic device. This adjustment can increase the ability of the impaired user to utilize the electronic data with the end-user electronic device.

12. A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having computer usable program code embodied therewith, the computer usable program code comprising:
-
computer usable program code configured to receive electronic data from a data provider, wherein at least one characteristic of the electronic data is incompatible with an impairment of an impaired user, wherein said at least one characteristic adversely affects an ability of the impaired user to utilize the electronic data; computer usable program code configured to automatically process the received electronic data to adjust the at least one incompatible characteristic, wherein said processing reduces an adverse effect of the at least one incompatible characteristic upon the ability of the impaired user to utilize the electronic data; computer usable program code configured to provide the processed electronic data to the impaired user for interaction, wherein it is unnecessary for the impaired user to make additional modifications to the processed electronic data to compensate for their impairment; and computer usable program code configured to identify the impairment of the impaired user, wherein the impairment is defined within an impairment profile associated with the impaired user, wherein the impairment profile expresses acceptable limit values for a plurality of data characteristics incompatible with the impairment of the impaired user and a type of processing for handling incompatible data characteristics. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)
