Q: What are typical uses of Buddy Button?
A: Switches can be used in a variety of ways and with a variety of devices.
When using switches in an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) setting, they are commonly used as external inputs for speech generating devices (SGDs), computer and iPad switch interfaces, and switch adapted toys.
Q: How does it work?
A: The user presses the large activation surface, which triggers the
connected device. It operates as a momentary switch, meaning it works only while
the switch is being pressed.
Q: What kind of feedback does it provide?
A: It offers auditory click and tactile feedback when pressed, helping users
know their input has been successfully registered.
Q: Can I use this with a communication device or just toys?
A: Yes, the Buddy Button is fully compatible with AAC devices, adapted toys, environmental controls, and computer access systems — as long as they have a standard 3.5mm input jack.
