Active Controls

Accessing an armrest mounted input device often requires the user to compromise their posture to drive a powerchair, which may result in permanent upper body deformations for active users. The ReJoy mounting platform and lateral adjustable lower arm/hand gel support pads offers superior positioning of the input device which leads to increased function of the controls. The ReJoy actually works in conjunction with the seating system to maintain body position at midline, thereby maximizing client comfort while reducing fatigue.

Active Controls' unique chin control mounting system provides proportional driving without head movement. Available with Switch-It's MicroPilot and MicroGuide and compatible with ASL's mini-proportional joysticks, drivers can operate it with their chin, lip or tongue. The optional FDA approved silicone ball can be used by the tongue and spring-loaded to provide protection for the drive control and driver.

The Platform to Re-deploy a Joystick at Midline

The ReJoy platform features pressure relieving gel pads that are adjustable by height, width and even pitch. With additional Center Drive System sockets, the same joystick can be driven from the side of the seat, or in the attendant position behind the seat.

 

The Center Drive System is a modular mounting system for drive controls and accessories. It can help improve postural positioning for power wheelchair patients. It also enlarges the overall patient population that can benefit from power mobility.

For initial use, simply connect the three pin plug of your power wheelchair charger into the three pin port of the ReCharge adaptor. Thereafter, to charge the power wheelchair, just insert the ReCharge adaptor into any Center Drive socket.

The Modular Tabletop that Mounts at Midline. This new accessory can be removed and conveniently stored in the side socket by the patient when not in use. The Active Tray is a natural expansion of Active Controls’ Center Drive System product line and will enhances the function of the Center Drive System. The Active Tray can also be used independently with manual wheelchairs.

The USB Charger and Guide Light for Portable Electronics. The Power Buddy's premium design features two rows of powerful LED lights to help you see and be seen. The flexible swan neck design allows you to twist and move the PowerBuddy so you can easily plug in your charging cord without having to fuss with it. The XLR plug can even be rotated 180 degrees to fit any position on virtually all scooters and power wheelchairs with off-board chargers.

The new digital JoyBar is compatible with Q-Logic, Otto Bock and RNET expandable electronics through their enhanced displays. As a result, the digital JoyBar can be installed on any powerchair that utilizes these expandable electronics without replacing the chairʼs power module required with the original JoyBar. Through the enhanced display, the user can also access as many seat functions as well as any environmental controls which the chair and its electronics can support.

The MicroTray is a combination central-mounted drive control and activity tray which also provides upper extremity support. Any mini-proportional joystick from Switch-It, Stealth or ASL can be mounted in the tray which comes pre-wired to the Active Controls quick disconnect Center Drive System.

A 3” heavy-duty arm under the tray allows a 360 degree rotational adjustment of the drive control so it can be positioned exactly where it best meets the needs of the wheelchair user. Moving the MicroTray out of the way for transfers is a breeze because it simply lifts off of the chair and can be safely stored unattached to the chair, or in an optional side-mounted holster socket on the chair.

Superior Midline Positioning - The ReJoy 360° offers superior midline positioning for joysticks and alternate drive controls pre-assembled in the modular Center Drive System. The dual-ball RAM mount swivels 360° around a 3 1/2" arc so the powerchair input device and gel pad support platform can be positioned exactly where it provides maximum performance and postural benefits.
