What is the Microsoft Digital Lens?

If you are working with user interface design, development or testing, then you might wish to take into consideration people with disabilities or for example low vision. Especially for low vision testing, Microsoft has written an application called Digital Lens, which is currently in technical preview.

Says Microsoft about the Digital Lens: "...provides UI designers and developers the tools to view the visual design as it would be seen by vision impaired users. By emulating common impaired vision conditions, Digital Lens users are able to identify issues in the UI and fix them before the product is released."
