For example, here is a blogger who talks about low vision access and here is a Clemson professor discussing a sidewalk inventory for accessibility. Try searching for vloggers on YouTube or on TikTok or Twitch or something similar for people who have a relevant disability and concern to your selected project. Also ask for help on our class discussion site if you are having trouble. If you cannot find a video, you can look for a written account, such as a blog or review, or read a relevant paper we approve.
