Cognitive Impairment
Use
just the keys needed to simplify the interface. Persons with cognitive
impairments can reduce struggles with attention and purposeful key
selection. The DX1 is scalable: add more keys when ready and watch
the freedom to communicate take off!
Range of Motion
Personalize
the layout for easy access. Individuals impacted by dexterity or range
of motion disabilities can place keys anywhere on the surface of the
Pad. Load up the Keys with commands that increase productivity and
enhance the fun of using a computer!
Blind / Low Vision
Get
the most out of applications for individuals who are blind or experience low
vision. Key board short cuts and drop down menus can be difficult to
execute with a standard keyboard and mouse. Customizing the interface
with the DX1 can avoid the frustration of having to recover from
accidentally striking keys.
Because keys can be moved, you can design input configurations to match
the unique geometry of your hand. In addition, keys can be arranged in
functional clusters or "logical neighborhoods".
Keys can be assigned single or multi key Macros. DX1 keys can be
assigned blocks of text and can also start programs or launch web sites.
DX1 COMPLETE SYSTEM
The
DX1 includes an 8 inch by 10 inch pad with an Active Surface of 7
inches by 9 inches, 25 DX1 keys (numbered 1 through 25), an

pre-printed labels. The DX1 is USB 2.0 compatible, and works on Mac OS X and Windows
2000 sp3/4 and Windows XP sp2/3 systems. (Windows Vista and
