Touch the musician to make them jump to the spotlight. Watch them move to centre stage and then entertain with their music. The clarity and bright colours are chosen to appeal to children with special needs, including cerebral visual impairment. This App has been designed to provide visually attractive activities to encourage locating and targeting. With its bright, high contrast graphics and fun musical rewards it is an ideal way to help children with visual and perceptual difficulties develop their hand eye co-ordination. The App provides a choice of levels to encourage more interaction and exploration of the screen to locate the musician. A visual and auditory cue is provided to prompt the user who may be having trouble locating the targets. Switch access for one or two switches is included. Switches can be connected via a Bluetooth switch interface. •Black background for maximum contrast. •Clear presentation with no visual clutter. •Twenty different musicians both real and fictional. •Choose from small or large targets. •Choose from three levels with two, three or five touches to jump to the spotlight on the centre stage. •Switch access options included (using available Bluetooth switch interfaces). •Single switch mode where each press causes a response. •Two switch mode offering a great introduction to two switch scanning. Press switch one to make single jumps to the target and the second switch has to be pressed for the final musical reward.
Flipping

Flipping is an accessible picture-puzzle game designed for visual assessment and visual training, with a special focus on children and adults who have low vision, cerebral or cortical visual impairment (CVI), or other special educational needs. A picture is divided into a grid and one or more cells are flipped upside-down or mirrored. The player spots the "wrong" cell and taps it to flip it back, rebuilding the whole image. When every cell is restored, a fun animation celebrates the success. The game is built around three principles that make it useful both as a visual-skills workout and as an assessment tool: • LARGE, HIGH-CONTRAST IMAGES — Every picture fills the screen. Bold colours, clean outlines and clearly recognisable subjects (animals, vehicles, flowers, shapes and patterns) give low-vision users something obvious to look at and react to. There are no distracting backgrounds. • GRADED DIFFICULTY — Three levels let you match the task to the learner's current ability: – Level 1: a 2×2 grid with a single flipped cell (easiest). – Level 2: a 3×3 grid with two flipped cells. – Level 3: a 4×4 grid with three flipped cells. The simple progression makes Flipping useful for tracking visual discrimination skills over time. • FULL ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS — Use touch, a single switch (auto-scan), or two switches. Turn sound on or off, adjust the volume, add a settle-time delay between puzzles so the learner can take in each completed picture, and set the auto-scan speed to suit the user. Nine activity categories are built in: Animals, Mix, Transport, Animals Full, Mix Full, Transport Full, Pattern, Colour and Shape. Each category has its own set of reward animations to celebrate success. Flipping also supports using your OWN pictures — tap the camera button to load family photos or any image from the device, so the activity can be personal and motivating. This makes it easy for teachers, therapists and parents to create material tailored to a specific learner. Flipping is landscape-only on both iPhone and iPad, so the picture fills the whole screen for maximum visual impact.
