Atkinson Hyperlegible offers "greater legibility and readability for low vision readers." See:
https://brailleinstitute.org/freefont

While it doesn't use a standard FOSS license, it's clear from the EULA that it is open source in the conventional sense:

"Copyright Holder allows the Font to be used, studied, modified and redistributed freely as long as it is not sold by itself. The Font, including any derivative works, may be bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold with any software or other work provided that the Reserved Typeface Name is not used on, in or by any derivative work. The Font and derivatives, however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The requirement for the Font to remain under this license does not apply to any document created using the Font or any of its derivatives."

Fonts that offer greater accessibility, both for low vision readers and readers with dyslexia and other barriers to access are underrepresented. I think your project is a great way to address this inequity.
