Do the Hart voting units meet the HAVA requirements for accessibility?
Yes. Level I Braille is used to label the controls (the ENTER, PREV, NEXT, HELP, and CAST BALLOT buttons and the SELECT Wheel) on the eSlate. As is standard, the Braille is located below each uniquely shaped control. The eSlate unit provides a non-visual access method that includes touch controls and audible playback of operating instructions and ballot content information. The audio component uses a recorded human voice (not a computer-generated one).
