TAP∙it Buzz in Action Magazine
March 22, 2011
“Once in a while, I see new technology that really excites me. TAP∙it™ is one of those technologies,” says award winning author John M. Williams, who has been writing about disability matters for more than 30 years.
In the Action Magazine article titled, "TAP∙it: A Winner," John describes the Touch Accessible Platform for Interactive Technology as an ideal workstation for a large variety of learners. TAP∙it empowers students with special needs via Intended Touch technology. It recognizes the difference between purposeful and accidental touches. Students can operate the 42-inch interactive LCD panel using a finger or an assistive device, making it valuable for independent or group work.
John says that adults can benefit from TAP∙it, “…in rehabilitation programs, for training purposes at Centers for Independent Living, to retrain wounded veterans, for entertainment, and in other areas.” He adds, “[TAP∙it] enhances a person’s pride and increases their independence.”
