"The data these customers share through our research helps our wireless industry partners meet customers' needs and also helps identify applications useful to people without disabilities," survey project director Jim Mueller said in a prepared statement. "We are not encouraging the wireless companies to make special products. We want products that will work for everyone."

RERC, a collaboration between the Georgia Institute of Technology and Atlanta-based Shepherd Center, promotes equitable access to wireless technologies and encourages universal design (useful for all ages and abilities) in future generations of wireless devices and applications. RERC is funded by the U.S. Department of Education's National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR).
