Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is slated to become a legal requirement for websites selling goods or services directly to the public starting in 2018. There are already plenty of good resources for identifying code-based compliance, but image compliance is a trickier matter. As a quick solution, we put together a Color Check tool that in two clicks allows you to select foreground and background colors and performs contrast validation on selected colors in accordance with ADA requirements. Image can be zoomed in and out using mouse scroll wheel to get precise color values from compressed or blurred areas.
The interactive Color Check for ADA compliance is the latest addition to our suite of free tools. If you have an idea for a tool that would expedite everyone's workflow, we'd love to hear from you!
