Using special and digital
effects and hosted by kids, the video shows many different types of
assistive technology available for various disabilities, how they
work and how to use them. The video will show that something as simple
as a tape recorder can be used as an assistive device. Many devices,
such as eye blink, voice activated and ribbon switches, JAWS computer
programs, head mouse and communication boards as well as a van modified
for use by a paraplegic are covered. Many of the devices and how they
work are explained to the hosts by the people that use them. Segments
are prefaced with a 'Here is how it works' segment. |
