Advancing digital inclusion, Kajeet adds accessibility features to its Sentinel platform to deliver a personalized, contextually accurate and safe experience for all users
MCLEAN, VA. (PRWEB) AUGUST 19, 2021
Kajeet®, a leading provider of wireless connectivity, software and hardware solutions that deliver safe, reliable and controlled internet access, today announced it added new accessibility features to Sentinel®, its IoT management platform. The new features aim to advance digital inclusion by enabling all users to independently engage with and harness the power of Kajeet’s mobile connectivity and device management solution.
Today, more than one billion people worldwide – about 15% of the global population – live with some form of disability, according to the World Health Organization. Recognizing that digital inclusion means access for everyone, Kajeet enhanced its platform to deliver enriched experiences for all users, including individuals with limited movement, blindness, low vision, photosensitivity, and cognitive and neurodevelopment disorders. Sentinel’s new accessibility features include predefined profiles and advanced customization, empowering users to personalize content, color, effects and orientation to fit their specific needs and preferences.
“We are thrilled to announce the launch of Kajeet’s accessibility solution and to bring the full capabilities of Sentinel to all of our customers,” said Daniel J.W. Neal, chairman, CEO and founder of Kajeet. “To fully close the digital divide, we must make the internet and the technology that powers it accessible to everyone. We look forward to continuing to roll out solutions that further enable ease of access and advance digital inclusion.”
Kajeet continues to align Sentinel with the WCAG 2.1 (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) compliance criteria at the AA level, which is the foundation of section 508 of the Rehabilitation act in the US, the AODA in Canada, and EN301549 in the EU.
