More Details

Use
* People with motor control and dexterity disabilities may benefit from having hand support and a guard that prevents unwanted key presses.

Design
* The keyguards are laser cut from approx 3.2 mm clear acrylic. They include 1.6 mm approx bumpers to raise the keyguard above the surface of the iPad which helps prevent accidental activation.
* Under certain conditions the use of hook and loop fastening (not included) or suction cups may be necessary to secure the keyguard to the iPad.

Standards

Standards
Some assistive technology needs to meet Australian or other standards. Standards may relate to materials, manufacturing and installation. Products that meet Australian or international standards will have written certification. To find out if a product meets Australian Standards ask the supplier to show you the certificate.

TGA
Many of the items on the Assistive Technology Australia website are categorised as a Medical Device. Medical devices that are approved for use in Australia have been entered into a national database called the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is maintained by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). You can ask the supplier for the ARTG number for the device you wish to purchase and search the ARTG for the entry. To access information on the ARTG visit www.tga.gov.au

When buying a medical device it is advisable to only choose a medical device that is recommended by a healthcare professional and has been included on the ARTG.
