Specialty Controls

Our Remote Stop Switch allows an attendant to stop a chair being driven by the user via an RF remote from up to 100 feet away (depending on the environment). We also offer the Remote Commander for driving a chair via an RF switch drive control remote for certain chair configurations.

The standard 3 proximity switch head array has a monojack for a mechanical switch for mode. An additional proximity switch can be added for mode, or two additional proximity switches can be added for dedicated mode and dedicated reverse.

Our Mouse Driver allows a powerchair to use their proportional or switched drive control to control their computer mouse wirelessly via an RF transmitter and receiver. For non powerchair users, we can provide mouse control independent of a wheelchair through switched head arrays or other switched offchair controls.

While there are other game controller housings embedded with wheelchair joysticks, this unique product takes an existing Playstation 2 controller and converts its commands (whether its the analog joysticks or the directional or action pads) into signals that the wheelchair electronics understand in order to drive the chair or control other chair functions. This allows a user that is familiar with the exact feel and movement of a standard game controller to operate their powerchair. We can customize the various buttons for specific functions upon the client’s needs/request.

The Tough Joystick is a heavy duty switched joystick (with 4 or 8 directions) and built in mode switch. It can also be used in conjunction with other switched controls if the user can only activate in one or two directions. Ideal for someone with high tone that can put their equipment to the test.

Virtually no joystick throw! Force based technology. Dealer accessible sensitivity adjustment. Adjustable for approximately 10 to 50 grams of force. All internal metal components means outstanding durability. For Chin, Finger, Thumb or other extremity applications. Approximate Joystick Dimensions: Diameter: 5/8” x Height without knob: 2 ½”

A combination of Sip and Puff Head Array helps eliminate the issues sometimes associated with pure Sip and Puff drive control. By not having to differentiate between a hard and soft sip or puff for four directions, the user can do any level of sip or puff for forward and reverse and use a slight roll of the head for left and right, allowing much better control and veering. We also offer our Opti-Stop fiber optic switch attached to the straw as a standard feature as an essential safety component of a Sip and Puff system. The chair will automatically stop if the switch and straw come away from the driver’s mouth.
