Access to the Arts through Assistive Technology.
Frame, Charles
Personnel in the rehabilitation field have come to recognize the possibilities and implications of computers as assistive technology for disabled persons. This manual provides information on how to adapt the Unicorn Board, Touch Talker/Light Talker overlays, the Adaptive Firmware Card setup disk, and Trace-Transparent Access Module (T-TAM) to assist individual clients. The information is organized in 4 parts: Part 1: "Introduction"; Part 2: "The Adaptive Firmware Card"; Part 3: "Trace Transparent Access Module" (T-TAM); and Part 4: "Setups and Overlays for Creativity Programs." Three appendices provide supplementary information: Other Adaptive Interfaces, Troubleshooting Operational Difficulties, and Equipment Configuration Diagrams. (MM)
