2.5 Success Criterion 2.5.4 – Motion Actuation

Functions triggered by moving a device (e.g. shaking or tilting) or by gesturing towards the device (e.g. a camera can interpret the gesture and activate a function) should be able to be operated by more conventional user interface components.

 

Before Rectification

A webpage sample with a 360 degree photo. To view a 360-degree photo, users are required to either move the device around to change the view or tap and drag on the photo.  Users with mobility difficulties are difficult to perform these actions.

 

After Rectification

A webpage sample containing a 360 degree photo with navigation buttons at the bottom of the photo for user to view the photo. Navigation buttons are added as an alternative for navigation.  Users can either move the device around to change the view or click the navigation buttons to perform the same function.
