Mobile devices, especially the iPhone, iPod, and iPad from Apple, are among the hottest consumer electronics on the market today. And although they come “pre-packaged” with a number of accessibility features, they are simply not accessible to tens of thousands of people. To remedy this problem, AbleNet is proud to introduce a line of Mobile Device Access products.
AbleNet is an international company and industry leader in providing educational and technical solutions to help children and adults with disabilities lead productive and fulfilled lives. This includes a complete line of communication aids for nonverbal individuals; access aids, such as switches and wheelchair-mounting devices for people who require physical supports; and special education classroom curriculum and software that both enhance and help ensure learning progress. Their products are used in hundreds of thousands of homes, clinics, and classrooms in the United States and across the globe.
AbleNet will release a full line catalog later this month and at the ATIA annual tradeshow in Orlando in which they will present some of the most innovative products on the market today making Apple devices accessible to persons with disabilities. This includes at-home and on-the-go mounting systems that work with AbleNet’s complete mounting line, as well as portable speakers and microphones. Probably the most exciting news is the newest version of the SoundingBoard™, the first app approved by Apple for one and two-switch accessibility.
Look forward to several new products throughout the year that will continue to open new possibilities for the world’s hottest technology.
