Cross-platform remote user experience accessibility

A system for assisting with cross-platform user experience accessibility, comprising:

• a memory for storing executable program code;
• and
• one or more processors, functionally coupled to the memory, the one or more processors being responsive to computer-executable instructions contained in the program code and operative to:
• establish, by a first device, a connection with a second;
• monitor event metadata generated by the first device;
• filter out background event metadata from the event metadata;
• tag metadata from the event metadata that is accessibility related, wherein image metadata associated with an image displayed by the first device is tagged from the event metadata;
• send the tagged event metadata to the second device in a first form compatible with a first platform executed by the first device for accessibility translation into a second form compatible with a second platform executed by the second device;
• receive, by the second device, the tagged event metadata;
• translate, by the second device, the tagged event metadata to a form readable by an accessibility engine operating on the second device;
• and
• provide, by the second device, a native accessibility experience corresponding to the translated event metadata, wherein the providing comprises producing an audio output corresponding to the image metadata associated with the image displayed by the first device.

A computer-readable storage device comprising executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, assists with user experience accessibility, the computer-readable storage device including instructions executable by the one or more processors for:

• establishing, by a first device, a connection with a second device;
• monitoring event metadata generated by the first device;
• filtering out background event metadata from the event metadata;
• tagging metadata from the event metadata that is accessibility related, wherein active screen location metadata from a user interface of the first device is tagged from the event metadata;
• sending the tagged event metadata to the second device in a first form compatible with a first platform executed by the first device for accessibility translation into a second form compatible with a second platform executed by the second device;
• receiving, by the second device, the tagged event metadata;
• translating, by the second device, the tagged event metadata to a form readable by an accessibility engine operating on the second device;
• and
• providing, by the second device, a native accessibility experience corresponding to the translated event metadata, wherein the providing comprises visually accentuating an active screen location of the user interface of the first device corresponding to the active screen location metadata.
