Assistive Technology Product Descriptions

Programs that publish newsletters, offer printed materials or maintain websites which provide information about specific assistive technology products or recent developments in the field. The product descriptions are generally intended to provide people with disabilities, their families and caregivers, health care professionals and special educators with enough information to get a better understanding of the assistive technology product without going into complex technical details. They provide a sense of the range of available features and an understanding of why there may be a wide variation in cost, for example, because of differences in sound quality, speed, capacity, or user flexibility and friendliness. They may also include information about where products are manufactured and where they can be purchased.
