- Tomorrow (Thurs) at 9am in HS19, Marina Pace will present a series of studies that she ran with Tessa Bury, to test whether observers perceive *implied motion* in accessibility icons. #ECVP2025Aug 27, 2025 21:20
- Marina finds that these icons — especially the increasingly popular Accessible Icon Project icon — are strong directional cues. For example, they automatically orient spatial attention in the direction that they are facing.
- This 'sense of motion' may be desirable sometimes, but it could cause trouble in situations where the icon is meant to indicate that the *present* location is accessible. Come to Marina's talk to hear more reflections about her collaboration w/ Tessa linking vision science, design and public policy!
