A few months back, we launched Infosys iProwe, which is a product in the domain of Web Accessibility Assessment & Remediation. Infosys iProwe is a patent pending Web Accessibility Assessment and Remediation Product from the Web 2.0 Research Lab. About 20% of the global population suffers from some form of disability and a large part of the World Wide Web (about 97%) is not accessible to this disabled population. Disabilities include visually challenges users of screen readers, hearing impaired users, low-vision users, color-blind users, users with a motor disability, and users with cognitive disabilities. iProwe leverages built-in intelligence to automatically analyse the accessibility issues of Websites and recommends remedial measures to make Websites accessible. iProwe provides comprehensive assessment and recommendation at the same time drastically reducing the time, cost, effort as well as errors involved in assessing and fixing Web accessibility issues. iProwe is targeted at enterprises with an online presence and it enables enterprises to achieve enhanced Web accessibility for differently-abled users better, faster and cheaper. iProwe is an enabler for enterprises planning their Web Accessibility strategy from dimensions including legal, economic as well as corporate social responsibility. Accessibility is a requirement from a legal perspective (legal regulations enforcing accessibility requirements), economic perspective (large potential customer base) as well as a corporate social responsibility perspective.
