The second installment in GitHub’s “Coding Accessibility” video series features Paul Chiou, a Ph.D. student at USC and developer who creates software to automatically detect and solve accessibility barriers for keyboard users. Paralyzed from the neck down, Chiou does all of this by using custom hardware and software he designed and built to act as a mouse. Meet Chiou and his collaborators, and hear how he’s working to make software more accessible to all. “I believe everyone should have the equal right to access information,” says Chiou. “It shouldn’t be limited just because the developers didn’t consider it during their design."
