Abstract
This paper argues for a focus on capabilities, acceptability and aspirations for accessible public system design. It presents a prototyping approach as a means of gathering the necessary accessibility data by using an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) test rig. Initial results of a pilot study using the test rig are also provided as an example of how this approach can be used to provide the capability, acceptability and aspiration data that is needed if we are to better predict accessibility problems, and thus reduce the need for iterative user testing, which presents many challenges for accessibility research.
