For all items in Compass Group USA markets and cafes at the Microsoft Redmond Campus, large print and braille signage is used to identify products to those who are blind or have low vision. Further, all self-serve items found in their cafes/markets (forks, spoons, bowls, sugar, creamer, etc.) are placed in custom built accessible fixtures to comply with reach range standards. Building upon these accessible experiences, Compass Group also offers point of sale systems with a “navigation bar” that allows verbal dictation for how the user navigates a touch-screen device via externally mounted buttons. This allows a blind user to independently navigate a touch screen system.
