Most actions performed by a pointing device such as a mouse can be done from a keyboard like clicking and selecting text. However there are a few tasks that can't be done from a keyboard such as free hand drawing, painting, and or games that require eye hand coordination from a pointing device.

How AudioEye Helps

AudioEye offers several keyboard-centric features. From the Visual Toolkit, users may enable the Keyboard Focus utility, which forces an accessible style schema to ensure elements receiving focus are properly conveyed.

Warnings

The AudioEye Visual Toolkit can adjust the formatting of a website, but it is not intended as a replacement for making the necessary visual improvements that help ensure an optimal visual experience for individuals with disabilities. AudioEye collaborates with Managed customers to assist them in identifying and understanding keyboard accessibility issues. When designing your site, try to be mindful to test the user experience from the perspective of someone relying solely on the use of the keyboard to engage and interact with your site.

As it pertains to ensuring all features and functionality may be controlled without the use of a mouse or visual point-and-click devices, AudioEye collaborates with Managed customers to determine any necessary remediations associated with highly dynamic features. However, the average website does not have the need for this type of keyboard functionality (e.g. free hand drawing), so most likely your website meets this standard.
