AR GLASSES ARE HERE, BUT WHAT ABOUT ACCESSIBILITY?

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

New AR glasses from companies like Meta and XREAL are becoming more practical, but their growth highlights the need to design accessibility from the start rather than as an add-on. While current features like speech-to-text and tools such as Be My Eyes already help, AR's real potential lies in universal, multisensory design—using vision, sound, and touch together to improve understanding and usability. This approach can make AR experiences more intuitive, inclusive, and immersive for everyone, not just users with disabilities.
