yup... we currently require any input including Bio-metric,to be keyboard accessible, but perhaps there is room for more.

 

It might fit into Patrick's wider "input" conversation, categorizing input devices (camera, shaking manipulating, etc.) into three broad categories, with perhaps a special category. It's a conversation in the mobile task force that has just begun but I guess will spill out because of it's general nature.

Folks,

 

Along the same lines as the ‘Functional Performance-like’ SC, do we want discuss including a Biometric Alternative SC in WCAG 2.1?

 

​​​​​Thanks!
