The ticket vending machine Access
The ticket vending machine Access satisfies all the principles of universal design. It has been thoroughly thought through both in terms of the dialogue between machine and user and in the design of the user interface. The ticket machine has a multimodal interface where visual elements, sound and surface structure together make it intuitive to use. Access has large, legible text with good contrast against the background, possibility for connection of loudspeakers and good tactile qualities, including guiding lines that make it easy for people with reduced vision to use the machine. The design makes the vending machine accessible and usable for users of all abilities.
