product for people with disabilities. This provision is not a "waiver" or

"variance" from the requirement to provide accessibility, but an avenue that

future technologies may be developed, or existing technologies used in a

particular way that could provide the same functional access in ways not

envisioned by these standards. In evaluating whether a technology results in

"substantially equivalent or greater access," it is the functional outcome, not the

form, which is important. Accessibility is sometimes attained through products

that do not strictly comply with these design standards, which could result in

the development of better access solutions for individuals with disabilities.

Explain which features or components use equivalent facilitation and how it

provides equivalent or greater access.
