Blurria

Blurria is a visually impaired rendering mode for web applications. It was developed to improve accessibility and usability for users who struggle with blurred or distorted content. The technology applies a deliberate blur effect to web pages, helping those with vision impairments or sensitivities to navigate digital information more comfortably.

The primary purpose of blurria is to mitigate screen glare and reduce visual strain. By rendering content in a blurred form, blurria aims to reduce the visual impact of heavy textures, busy backgrounds, and distracting images. This, in turn, allows users with sensory sensitivities to better focus on the essential information being presented.

The technology involves applying a proprietary blur filter to web content. This filter effectively suppresses the high-frequency components of the visual data, creating a soft, reduced-contrast version of the original image. As a result, the overall visual complexity of the web page is reduced, making it easier for users to understand and interact with the information.

Blurria is designed to complement existing accessibility features such as high contrast mode, font size adjustment, and screen reader integration. By combining these features, users with various visual impairments or sensitivities can optimize their web browsing experience to suit their individual needs. While blurria has its own set of specific settings and preferences, its core functionality is intended to be seamless and unobtrusive, enhancing the overall usability and accessibility of web-based applications.
