Over the past few months I have been highlighting pieces of assistive technology (AT) that are featured in the various rooms of IPAT’s Home First Showroom.  You have read about AT for the bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living room.  Today I am featuring AT devices from the final room of the Home First Showroom, the office or den.

Large Print Keyboard Labels can be a great low-cost solution for someone with low-vision.  They are easy to apply. Simply peel off the sticker and place it over the correct key on the keyboard.  This is a quick and easy solution to allow someone to continue accessing their computer! The labels are available in a variety of colors.

The Jumbo Talking Calculator is a great solution for those with low-vision.  The large keys make it easy to see and find numbers.  In addition, there is a clear female voice that announces calculations in units and digits.

 

 

 

CapTel

CapTel

The CapTel phone allows an individual with a hearing loss to read what the other person in saying.  By using a caption service, the user with a hearing loss talks into the handset, like you would with any phone, but is able to clearly understand the other party by seeing the words on the CapTel screen. Options include adjustable font size and color and the ability to save conversations for review at a later time. Click here to read more about the CapTel.
