Adaptive & Accessibility Products

Adaptive technology helps people with limited mobility, dexterity, vision or speech use computers and communicate more independently. This collection includes AbleNet switches such as the Big Red, Buddy Button and Jelly Bean, AbleNet speech devices like the BIGmack and QuickTalker, the Matias Half Keyboard for one-handed typing, Kinesis Savant Elite2 foot pedals, the BIGtrack 2 trackball and LogicKeyboard braille keyboards.

How to choose

• Activation method: consider the body part used (hand, head, cheek or foot) and how much force it can apply.
• Switch size and sensitivity: larger targets and lighter touch can help with motor challenges.
• Connectivity: check whether you need a wired switch, a wireless transmitter and receiver, or a switch interface.
• Communication needs: speech devices range from single-message to multi-level recording.
• Typing method: one-handed, braille or programmable pedal input suit different users.
