Nomensa have created an accessible media player, capable of playing audio and video content. The player can also pull in content from YouTube, making it the perfect accessible YouTube player for embedding into any website.
A standard Flash media player has been wrapped in HTML/CSS content, to give it an accessible interface. Advanced techniques, including Accessible Rich Internet Application (ARIA) code, have been used to produce this revolutionary media player.
The media player is keyboard accessible, making it enjoyable for people to use without a mouse. It's screen reader friendly as well, and also offers an unparalleled experience for people using the latest screen readers with ARIA support.
People who are deaf or hard of hearing can also enjoy using the media player, as it has the ability to display captions as standard. It really offers an inclusive experience for everyone visiting the website.
Most Flash based media players use a fixed interface, but the accessible media player from Nomensa can be adapted to suit any website. The HTML/CSS interface provides great flexibility for branding and styling.
Compared to other options, such as the standard YouTube player, the Nomensa accessible media player really offers some tremendous benefits. It's accessible, can be uniquely branded, and offers a truly inclusive experience.
The Nomensa accessible media player is perfect for public, private or third sector websites wanting to participate in the social media scene. To find out more about including content without excluding people, please contact us.
