On July 26, 2010, on the 20th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Department of Justice announced rules updating the ADA standards governing the construction and alteration of facilities, including places of public accommodation, commercial facilities and state and local government facilities.

New standards include new technical specifications for speech output guidance, keypad controls, display screens and Braille instructions for impaired consumers.
