Accessible Encounter Dinosaurs
While preparing my talk for iOSKonf24, I came across a guide that showed how to adjust the settings of Encounter Dinosaurs. For some reason, after nearly a year and hundreds of demos, it never occurred to me that the app's settings could include accessibility options. And here you have it: one of the best demonstrations of accessible spatial computing, just waiting to be discovered.

From the settings, room alignment has an interesting effect on modifying the portal geometry when it does not fit on the room. However, my preferred feature is Interaction Assist, which enables me to engage with dialogues at decision points in the story without the need to physically move around and interact with the characters.
