Описание (английский):

This document provides requirements for the icons that are suitable for setting up interaction modes in all kinds of devices. It gives guidance about their purpose, their function, and how they are designed in order to be usable. This document specifies two sets of icons: a) icons that deal with global constraints that are taken into account by the product or service; b) icons that are oriented to more specific functions. Each icon is illustrated through a glyph, name, description and function.

Overview

ISO/IEC 11581-7:2024 - Information technology - User interface icons - Part 7: Icons for setting interaction modes - defines requirements and guidance for icons used to configure interaction modes across devices and services. The standard specifies two icon sets:

Global (generic) icons that indicate product or service constraints considered (e.g., accessibility, vision, hearing, manipulation, cognition).

Specific icons for particular functions, presets and input/output settings.

Each icon entry in the standard is illustrated with a glyph, name, description and function, and covers visual, auditory (earcon) and tactile (tacton) modalities.

Key technical topics and requirements

Scope and conformance: Icons for setting interaction modes must meet the requirements in Clause 5 to be conformant (Clause 4).

Icon taxonomy: Distinguishes global accessibility indicators from more specific usage- and content-related icons.

Multimodal representation: Visual icons should have matching earcons and tactons where applicable to ensure cross‑modal accessibility.

Design rules for generic icons:

Prefer circular form.
Deep blue background without gradient is recommended; alternatives permitted (black background/white glyph, white background/deep blue glyph).
Flat design only - no shadows, depth effects, or strikethroughs.

Definitions: Clear terms such as icon (visual icon), earcon (auditory icon) and tacton (tactile icon) are provided to ensure consistent implementation.

Icon functions and states: Each icon entry includes intended user function (e.g., indicate availability of accessibility features) and label/alt text guidance.

Practical applications and who uses this standard

UX/UI designers and iconographers: To create consistent, usable icons for accessibility and interaction-mode settings.

Product designers and device manufacturers: To label packaging, settings menus and hardware for accessibility compliance and discoverability.

Software developers and system integrators: To implement icon sets across apps, embedded systems and multi-device ecosystems.

Accessibility specialists and QA teams: To verify that icons communicate available interaction modes (vision, hearing, tactile, cognitive, manipulation) and that multimodal cues are provided. Use cases include system settings menus, assistive-technology indicators, preset usage modes (e.g., low-vision, hands-free), and input/output configuration (display, vibration, vocalization).
