Re: Next gen consoles and accessibility It's only something like 10% of blind people who can read braille anyway, right? Making it a niche of a niche, and any hardware that involves automated movement of parts is very expensive to make, as can be seen by the cost of refreshable braille displays.

Re: Next gen consoles and accessibility I can't say what will happen with the PS 5, but I have a good feeling about XBox. As someone said earlier, Microsoft has a really good Accessibility team, and I would even go as far as saying that the accessibility on the new XBox consoles could be even better than what's already there. And I don't know if I'd like the braille display, because I'm more of an audio fan.

Re: Next gen consoles and accessibility @8, then you probably won't be geting it, considering they haven't updated since it was introduced other than one major update which enabled reading of the entire top layer of the ps4 structure. IF ps5 has tts, I imagine it wil have the same restrictions unless proven otherwise. So my advice is, don't hold your breath. lol For my part though, backwards compatibility will make or break the deal. I heard the ps5 was supposed to be backwards cmpatible, and if so, you can bet your life I'm going to leap on it. Otherwise it'll be more of a dilemma. lol URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/534946/#p534946 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Next gen consoles and accessibility This is what I read so far for the PS5.PlayStation 5 controllers have rumors about all sorts of patents, but a new accessibility paten is a boon for players with disabilities.list of 2 itemsBY MINA SMITHMAR 13, 2020Playstation dualshock controllerConsole controller technology has come a long way in the last few decades, but it looks like the new PlayStation 5 controllers may have an accessibility upgrade that will be a game-changer for a lot of gaming fans with a pretty common disability.Looking back to the simple joystick controller of the Atari 2600, it is impossible not to be a little awed by all the technological upgrades that havebeen implemented over the years. Between things like wireless charging and Bluetooth, as well as patents for bendable Joy-Cons,controllers for consoles seem to have limitless possibilities for what they will look like in the future.According to a leak, there is a new patent for an attachment to the PlayStation 5 controller that would allow Braille text on a flexible display on thecontroller. This would allow many partially blind players or those with vision impairments who can't usually read the on-screen text to be able to touchthe text on their controllers. While this wouldn't be the only change to the PlayStation 5 controllers from the DualShock 4, it could mean a lot to gamers who have trouble seeing clearly.This is great news for accessibility in gaming. While it is only a patent and may not come to fruition, it's nice to know that Sony is working to makegaming accessible to more players, even if they have a visual impairment that might make playing video games very difficult. It isn't the only patent that Sony has made for the upcoming PlayStation 5 controllers,but it sounds like one that many people would love to have in particular.The strides in accessibility across the gaming spectrum is good news for all players, as everyone who loves video games should have a chance to play them.This patent seems like an addition to the PS5 controller that could see a mention at the Accessibility Awards.Hopefully, it will be an affordable addition to the controller, or else it might not be as accessible for those who really need it. A cheap accessory tohelp out the blind would be one of the best things about the PS5's upcoming release.
