Detectability of Test Surfaces Visually Impaired
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) changed the public accommodations of businesses and public spaces everywhere.

These regulations provide accessibility with ramps, handicapped parking spaces and wide hallways.
One of the assistive technologies required by the ADA is the installation of detectable warnings at curb ramps, hazardous vehicle ways, reflecting pools, and transit platform edges. Detectable warnings have bumpy surfaces that warn a blind individual or a person with visual impairments of a possible danger.
This mobile app is designed for visually impaired people to test the efficacy level of several detectable surfaces. It allows the user to replace paper testing forms with a mobile device. Working with identified surfaces that have been effective in previous studies, this app allows visually impaired individuals to judge surfaces and give an opinion.
The Detectability of Test Surfaces Visually Impaired Mobile App includes fields to document items such as date, examiner's name, subject number, and comments. It can also capture the examiner's signature. Once the mobile app is completed a secure PDF is generated. The PDF is easy to share, and a copy is stored in your account for your accessibility records. You can also use the App Builder to personalize and customize this mobile form. This ADA Pedestrian Access Checklist Mobile App is part of a comprehensive package of GoCanvas’ electronic applications that provide solutions for ADA compliance. Although the ADA is federal law, it’s often the local governments that must oversee ADA regulations regarding businesses and public accommodation for people with disabilities. These ADA checklists help people understand and follow the guidelines to assist individuals with disabilities.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
