I'm pondering product cards and WCAG 2.2 criteria 1.4.1 (use of colour).

In this example, which is quite common, there is a product (a t-shirt) and in the card 3 colour variations are indicated by small circular images.

There is no text describing those colours.

Fail of 1.4.1?

A product card from an ecommerce website. There is a photo of a t-shirt. Under are three small circles showing colour variations. There is then text saying "Men XS-3XL. Oversized colour block t-shirt (Raglan)" a price and what would appear to be a rating.

Title II Today: Compliance & Accessibility Insights Newsletter. A digitally created image features a businessman in a suit extending his index finger to touch a glowing holographic interface displaying the word 'COMPLIANCE' in bold, capitalized letters. The interface includes various compliance-related icons such as a checklist, a gavel, and interconnected gears, all set against a futuristic blue-toned background with circuit-like patterns. A stylized world map made of blue dots appears below, emphasizing global compliance. In the bottom right corner, a white icon of a government building with a checkmark, along with the words 'TITLE II COMPLIANCE AND ACCESSIBILITY' and a wheelchair accessibility symbol, signifies regulatory adherence and accessibility standards.

Since it doesn’t seem to exist, I want to make a tool that will show color contrast for text in images. It would:
1. Take an image (or pdf?) as input
2. Detect where the text is
3. Determine the color of the text (per character)
4. Determine the color of the background just outside the text
5. Calculate the color contrast between the two colors
6. Overlay warnings where the contrast is too low

Anyone have ideas for the first few steps? I have the math solved for step 5. #accessibility #wcag

Image generation just hit an inflection point—and it changes accessibility overnight.
If you need visuals for a document, slide, or webpage, you’re now two prompts away from:
1. A custom illustration.
2. WCAG-compliant alt text.
Just copy your text into GPT-4o and say:
• “Generate an image to illustrate this text.”
• “Write WCAG-compliant alt text for the image.”
That’s it.
Inclusive. Fast. No effort.
Accessibility just got a boost from AI—and it’s about time.

A flat-style digital illustration asks, "Is this the future of accessible content?" in bold black text at the top. On the left side, a block of Gray placeholder text is paired with a speech bubble that reads, “Generate an image to illustrate this text.” On the right, a friendly turquoise AI robot holds an image card in one hand and a caption with WCAG-compliant alt text in the other, representing the creation of accessible visuals through AI.
