TouchMe Trainer for iPad is available in 2 versions: - TouchMe Trainer: Only one object can be used in the exercises. An In-App Purchase is required to use all objects. - TouchMe Trainer PRO: All objects can be used without limitation. The application offers two exercises: Exercise 1: “Touch” The aim of this exercise is to recognize the presented object and to touch it. Every correct input will be confirmed with a short feedback. After a predefined number of correct inputs, a reward animation will be played. The level of difficulty will adjust automatically to the skill of the user. At the beginning the objects are big but they will be reduced in size gradually. Exercise 2: “Drag and drop” The aim of this exercise is to move objects to their target position by swiping over the screen. Again, the level of difficulty will adjust automatically to the skill of the user. Various settings allow adjustment for special needs of users. The latest sessions will be recorded and may be used for documentation and evaluation. Note: On the iPad, the Home button must be pressed to get back to the main screen of the application.

Visual LightPad creates a bright illuminated surface for developing visual perceptual and visual motor skills in people with visual impairment. It's a cheaper alternative to expensive, dedicated hardware visual impairment light boxes. Think of it as a digital light box! Adjust Visual LightPad's brightness and color, then place semi transparent toys, numbers or letters on the iPad's screen. Where colors become difficult, open the color picker and change the background color to something that accentuates the toys. Where hardware light boxes can be associated with work, iPads tend to be associated with play. Visual LightPad helps develop awareness to color and light, but using objects also helps in the development of visual perceptual skills, hand eye coordination, and both visual scanning and tracking. Visual LightPad can also be used for; - Reading content printed onto acetate - Providing a reading backlight when paper documents are placed on top of it - Photo negative illumination - Sensory / mood lighting Visual LightPad is purposefully easy to use and relatively low on features. It supports presets for easy saving and recall of preferred settings. It is designed to run on iPad, but also runs on iPhone - meaning you can keep a small light box in your pocket at all times.
