InclusiSight: More Than Meets the Eye
Pioneering Inclusive Design in academia, ensuring digital learning spaces are accessible to every student.
First-Cut Project Proposal
The foundational pillars of InclusiSight.
Project Title
InclusiSight: A Secure and Forensically-Verifiable Color Accessibility Framework.
Problem Statement
Standard accessibility tools often require invasive permissions (a security risk), while forensic dashboards lack color-blind modes, causing investigators to potentially misinterpret critical visual evidence.
Objectives
- 1. Create a real-time color adaptation engine for Protanopia, Deuteranopia, and Tritanopia.
- 2. Implement an integrated logging system that uses SHA-256 hashing to verify visual transformations for forensic reproducibility.
- 3. Minimize attack surfaces by developing the tool as a sandboxed, offline Chrome extension.
Proposed Approach
A privacy-first Chrome extension using CSS/SVG matrices for color shifting and local storage for tamper-proof activity logging.
Expected Outcome
A secure tool that makes digital content accessible to color-blind users while providing a verifiable 'visual audit trail' for forensic investigations.

Reflection & Conclusion
"Starting early with a solid project proposal is not just about organization—it's about clarifying the vision. For InclusiSight, defining the 'double-encoding' requirement at the start was critical in ensuring that every design decision serves the ultimate goal of universal accessibility."
