About
Patrick Carrington is a leading researcher in accessible computing and human-computer interaction, with a focus on designing inclusive technologies for people with disabilities. His work critically examines how emerging urban mobility systems—such as e-scooters and shared bikes—intersect with accessibility, revealing how these innovations often create new barriers for disabled individuals. In his highly cited 2021 paper, "Accessibility and The Crowded Sidewalk: Micromobility's Impact on Public Space" (46 citations), Carrington demonstrates how the proliferation of micromobility devices disrupts public spaces, forcing pedestrians with mobility aids into unsafe or impassable routes. This research has shaped policy discussions on equitable urban design. Beyond this, Carrington’s broader contributions include developing assistive technologies that empower users with motor impairments, such as novel input methods and wearable systems. His work has been recognized with multiple best paper awards and features in top venues like CHI and ASSETS. With a growing citation impact, Carrington is a vital voice advocating for inclusive design in an increasingly automated world.
