The Digital Accessibility Team (DAT) are involved in influencing the research and development of new technologies for the future benefit of blind and partially sighted people and in providing standards and research to improve the design of equipment to ensure it is accessible by people with sight problems.

DAT is continuing its work in the areas of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) by participating in a number of British Standards Institute (BSI) groups including ICT/6 ICT Accessibility Coordination Panel, IST/45 Web Accessibility Committee and PH/9 Applied Ergonomics Committee. Along with this, DAT is also involved in a number of research initiatives and other projects in these areas.
