Assistive Technology
Assistive Technology devices include assistive, adaptive, and rehabilitative devices for people with disabilities and special needs. Assistive technology promotes greater independence by enabling special needs people to perform tasks that they were formerly unable to accomplish, or had great difficulty accomplishing. We offer AbleNet’s Environmental control units, Augmentative Communication devices and switches at best prices.
Assistive Technology Devices for Children with Special Needs
Environmental Control Units
Environmental control units allow special needs people to control their living environment by using voice or a single accessible switch to give commands. ECUs wirelessly transmit the commands which turn out in action of controlling any device. So, either in bed or in wheelchair, people can control their immediate surroundings.
Communication
Assistive communication devices are speech generating devices that enable children with varying degrees of speech impairment to communicate. Children have to type on a keyboard or select words or pictures that are then translated and spoken by a pre-programmed voice.
Switches
Ablenet switches are designed in such a manner that best match the abilities and needs of the individual user. Sturdy construction makes the switches responsive across entire surface. Easily mounted Ablenet switches provide clear tactile and auditory feedback. Available in a variety of colors!
