Explanation

Code 17 is used to indicate that the publication contains content that simulates motion which may cause discomfort in sensitive individuals.

Simulated motion can take a number of forms. For example, interactive games, particularly those with first-person perspectives, can trigger users who are sensitive to motion. Less common in paginated ebooks, but still an issue to consider, is the use of CSS scrolling animations.

When publishers make a motion hazard hazard claim, they should provide details about where the hazard occurs in the accessibility addendum.

If there are no motion simulation hazards, use code 18. If the risk cannot be determined, use code 26.

Only for use in ONIX 3.0 or later.
