This year, Cornell University will host the sixth annual XR Access Symposium, an annual conference that brings together influential figures from advocacy, academia, and business to discuss and resolve the most urgent issues regarding extended reality accessibility. The focus will be on Insights from XR Assistive Technology: how can we learn from technologies aimed at assisting disabled people in order to make mainstream XR more accessible? The two-day conference will take place June 6-7 on Cornell Tech’s campus in New York City and will be broadcast online. We welcome you to join–you can register on Eventbrite to attend in person or online via Zoom.
