Some areas where pattern-recognition research can beneficially be adapted to address the needs of people with disabilities, are pointed out. The use of open-source technologies to improve accessibility for a larger part of the disabled community in South Africa are also discussed.enPattern recognitionDisabled peopleHuman computer interfacePRASA 2004Pattern recognition in service of people with disabilitiesConference PresentationCoetzee, L., & Barnard, E.
