| There are literally hundreds of assistive technology products. These products have been designed to collectively meet the needs of individuals across a wide-range of disabilities—blindness, learning difficulties, etc. as well as temporary or permanent problems such as carpal tunnel syndrome or arthritis. Typically these products are built to run on specific computer operating systems (e.g. Windows XP) and/or add features to a computer application (e.g. Microsoft Word). In short, assistive technology allows an individual with a disability or functional limitation to independently use his/her personal computer—even if they can’t see the monitor, type on the keyboard or move/click the mouse.
