OnScreen On-screen Virtual Keyboard

Our on-screen keyboard allows the user to enter text into any application. We’ve included many special features based on feedback from actual on-screen keyboard users.

A few are:
WordComplete gives you choices of words you've used previously, in the order of frequency-of-use, to complete your current word. It learns as you use it, adding to its built-in word bank.

SizeApp/Auto-Arrange lets you size the application you are typing 'into', so that the OnScreen and app windows do not cover each other.

There is a free trial period included with this product, so there's no reason you shouldn't try it! It's a customer hit, so satisfaction is guaranteed!

BIG Button Music Remote Operated via Bluetooth

We’re always striving to give others access to anything that may prove too difficult otherwise. BIG Button gives you control of iPods, iPhones, smartphones, any Bluetooth device with music. You are able to use your own earbuds, headphones, speaker, or dock.
For older iPods with the 30-pin connector, we have the Dock version.

If the user cannot press the buttons manually, consider the Additional Switch Inputs for each function they wish to control. You can order Switch Inputs for that number of functions.

Quad Button Box with Xbox 360 or PS3 Game Controller

Gamers with physical challenges often can't get at the rear and/or ‘shoulder' triggers of a game controller. To help those with this problem, one solution is my QBB shown here. It both holds the controller and gives big button access to those hard-to-reach triggers.

This 8" x 4" x 2-3" box has 4 large (1.5") buttons on it that perform the functions of the trigger and 'shoulder' buttons of an Xbox 360 or PS3 game controller. It also has a mounting bracket for the actual game controller (which is included) so that the user doesn't have to hold it, and allows one-hand control of the game. Alternatively, the controller can be positioned separately and held in place with our super-duper special VELCRO®.

The CooperCar 2

Over the last 6 months, we have engineered a very unique commercially available ride-on vehicle with many capabilities and features. These include extended activation for quick switch hits, acceleration control, variable speed, with the option of wireless remote override, and we have found less expensive seating than we previously used. We currently have 14 of these in stock to offer you.

From 1991 to 1999, we created and supplied an adaptation of a commercially available ride-on vehicle that was available from Toys 'R Us. We had 848 of them around the world! Unfortunately, the manufacturer's factory burnt down along with the mold for the plastic body. At the time, this was the only battery-operated ride-on vehicle that turned via a joystick, so that was the end of that. But fear not, our current model is better than ever.

We originally designed this for a kid named Brent as an alternative to expensive powered wheelchairs. While playing with it at his school in 1991, we discovered a second very powerful use for it, cause/effect. Having a switch spin you or propel you forward turned out to be the greatest cause/effect feedback device we’ve ever employed.

When you see us at an Abilities Expo around the country, with The CooperCar 2, you'll notice that the kiddos that drive the vehicle can be significantly cognitively impaired and still get a lot out of the experience!

Max weight is about 50 lbs. Seating is your responsibility. Our favorite is the Special Tomato Soft Touch Sitter. We have added a link to this special seat below.

https://www.adaptivemall.com/special-tomato-soft-touch-sitter.html

Options for the vehicle include:

• Magic Arm, Articulating Arm, or Mini-Arm to hold switch/joystick.
• Joystick
• Wireless Remote Override

Streaming TV Controllers (all brands, optional switch adaptation available)

This product was created for seniors and disabled persons, for whom a conventional remote is simply inaccessible due to several factors, including but not limited to: the remote buttons being too small, too close together, or altogether having too many buttons. Our goal was to make all types of current TV and media within reach, and we delivered.

Streaming TV is very popular currently, many enjoy streaming with Roku TV, Fire TV, or Smart TV. There are the USB-plugin devices, such as Chromecast, Apple TV, Fire Stick, and Roku Stick, all vying for the top spot. These TV's and plugins connect directly with your Wi-Fi router and/or modem.

Smart TVs are not specific to a company or brand's streaming, because they don't require a separate USB device for that service (for example, they can access Netflix and a host of other streaming channels). The difference between a specific streaming TV or plugin and a Smart TV is the number of apps (i.e., channels) it offers, but that is becoming moot as they each try to cover all channels.
We aim to cover all, as the need arises. Life is too short to live without the Streaming TV Controllers (all brands, optional switch adaption available). We are able to create controllers at your request, so give us a shout. You won’t be disappointed!

Here is an all-time favorite product of our customers, the Call Chime. It was in heavy demand and requested often, so we created it. It does not disappoint! It operates via a switch, is inexpensive, and has 75 feet of range. The receiver plugs into a wall socket, and the transmitter is switch-adapted. It is easy to use, reliable, transportable, and would be a perfect gadget for you and your family.

Here we have an adorable and inexpensive switch interface designed for computers. SwitchHopper provides a place to plug switches into a computer. There are 3 switch inputs within this product. When you plug a switch into a SwitchHopper jack, the switch becomes standard mouse clicks (Win: left, middle, right; Mac: left, drag, control-click), and with installation of the accompanying software, you can configure each button to be any mouse-button event or keystroke that you’d like.

SwitchHopper does not interfere with the operation of other pointing devices, such as a mouse, and it works in addition to your mouse. Your mouse retains all of its normal functions (if installed, and the SwitchHopper software is awake, the switch inputs might be reconfigured which would affect all mouse buttons. Alt-X, toggles between awake and asleep to reinstate your regular mouse button functionality). Having this as an option is not only easy to switch back and forth, it’s also a huge time saver and extremely convenient for every user.

A word from one of our customers, the mother of Shelby in these photos: "I have known about RJ Cooper and his many talents and have bought other items from him. I needed a book holder on an Arm for my daughter. I was not able to locate what I needed. I went to RJ and asked him. Bam! What do you know? RJ came up with the perfect solution. Thank you, RJ! You are awesome!"

Our AireTouch is an exceptionally light touch switch, mounted on a plastic dowel and operated with your finger. It can be used with either the index finger or the middle finger. It is a great choice for most people with disabilities. The switch can be plugged into a wide variety of switch-adapted gadgets, an iPad, or a computer. We have used Micro-Light and Ultra-Light switches over the years and found that they were often too large or bulky for a small area. Keep in mind that this product functions with a much lighter touch than the switches mentioned above, the slightest touch will set it off. Measuring at 3/4” square and 1/4” tall, this fits almost anywhere. You can purchase it here, just click the link below.

Sensory rooms are a bit hit these days. When we think of them, we think of sensory delivery, and sensory integration. The former is passive, receiving comforting or stimulating lights, music, or vibration. The latter involves learning to cause the Reinforcement. We make several devices that allow for inexpensive and easy implementation of the integration path.

1) Cause/Effect BoomBox: or Cause/Effect Player:
2) WakerShaker device: https://store.rjcooper.com/products/wakershaker

With these tools, you can start or add to a great sensory environment.

XBox One, S, X & PlayStation 4, 5 Game Controller Boxes

For many years, we adapted game controllers for collaborative play, where the challenged user would perform 1-2 important functions of a game, and a peer, sibling, or parent would perform the others. We added accessible buttons or switch inputs, and the collaborator would use that controller. We did this for all the game consoles, ending with the Xbox 360 and PS3 generations. We finally got on board the Xbox One (in addition to the XBox S, X and PS4 &5) with these new products. And this time, we are aiming for independent play, piggy-backing off the nice Microsoft Xbox Adaptive Controller.

The Microsoft XAC is a box that connects to your Xbox One, S, X and/or PS4 &5 which connects to one of the USB ports on your console. If you have a PS4, no worries, we will supply you with the necessary adapter. Our controllers will then plug into your XAC's USB port. For button-pressing, you will use the multi-colored accompanying cable to go from our switch outputs to the XAC's switch inputs. In this manner, you can choose what our 4 buttons do within your games.

The XAC has switch inputs for all of the buttons on a regular controller, so you can have our buttons do what you want, or, get the Directional Button-Pad below and plug your switch directly into the XAC. Also, the XAC has a Co-pilot mode where you can have a regular controller help the XAC user.

The Small Joystick below, as well as the buttons, are actually "switches”, on or off. This joystick is not proportional. But in our experience, we’ve found that the small movement of the stick doesn't really lend itself to fine movement, and our users aren't great at fine motor control. So, each controller below has a setting for your game range, that is, how far your game thinks you are pushing a thumbstick, which this controller is mimicking to be. You can plug in 2 of our controllers to achieve left and right thumbstick control (usually, your left thumbstick is for movement and the right is for looking around).

We do NOT supply the XAC. You can purchase these at BestBuy.com, The Microsoft store, or Target.com ($99).

And for you PS4 people, the adapter we offer (pink one below) plugs right into your PS4 USB port and away you go!

Every product is unique, just like you. If you're looking for a product that fits the mold, the XBox One S, X & PlayStation 4, 5 game controller boxes are for you.

Using a small MP3 Player, we created additional electronics that would turn a switch hit into music/audio playback for 10-120 seconds. It's a simple 3 x 3 cube, rechargeable, with a built-in speaker, with a removable mini-SD card for storage. Plug a switch in (optional), and the audio plays for your set-able amount of time, then pauses. It functions strictly by time, not song or chapter.
A 3-way switch lets you choose between Timed, Latching, or Momentary.

When presenting to a learner, audio should be paused, and the first switch hit will then begin the audio.

Our Switch-Adapted Cause/Effect Player is original, to say the least, but that's why you're drawn to it in the first place.

For over 30 years we’ve offered switch-adapted joysticks for computers, but they were pretty large. We finally created a smaller one, that not only work with computers, but also works with iPad and Android tablets.

This product is available in standalone (just the joystick (3” x 3” x 3”) with optional switch inputs, or in a box that has the option of a large 1.25” buttons on it, with your choice of how many and which functions.

The standalone version includes a joystick to USB adapter that plugs right into any computer, Chromebook, iPad (requires Apple’s Lightning to USB adapter which is available below or at BestBuy, Apple Store, etc.), or Android device (an optional ‘Mini-USB adapter’ is necessary, again below or BestBuy, etc.)

The joystick to USB adapter is built into the Box version and is in-line for the standalone. During checkout, for the Box version, you can specify where you want each button, even the color.

The joystick is sensitive enough for SMA, or when mounted on one of our very own Positioning Arms, the Joystick-only can be chin or mouth operated.

We know that you will love this product, we’re very proud of it.

We created this product to emulate the great Forte note-taker with Text to Speech (TTS). Unfortunately, they discontinued this product, but as we were contributors of the product’s firmware, and an official reseller, people came to us for an alternative product that would mimic the Forte note-taker.

We suggest a combination of our very own FortePad iPad Case with a popular simple talking word processor app. We recommend that you pair the ClaroRead (visit the Apple’s App Store to get this app) app with this product for the best results. We have found that this duo imitates the original Forte note-taker the very best.

It’s a compact keyboard built into a case, available for all iPad generations, has a built in TTS and speaker, sports a clamshell design, and has robust protection. Not only that, but the case accommodates a variety of configurations, and connects by Bluetooth to iPad. Not sure about this product? Don’t be. Let our satisfaction guarantee address your concerns.
