Chester Creek Technologies began with the idea to create a line of functional and fun keyboards and mice for children and those with special needs. Today, we offer over a dozen keyboards and nearly as many mice, not to mention the many other computer accessories that we have added over the years. What started as a kid-friendly group of products has expanded into the assistive technology niche, and Chester Creek is now known for their high visibility keyboards as well.
In addition to our VisionBoard Black, our VisionBoard2 – white and yellow – and our ReaderBoard, we are now offering a wireless VisionBoard in black or white for greater flexibility. These keyboards feature large print and high-contrast color schemes, which can greatly increase visibility for a number of conditions. For instance, our VisionBoard Yellow has been incredibly beneficial for many individuals suffering from macular degeneration.
The macula is a part of the nerves inside the eye that focuses on details and colors directly in the line of vision. With macular degeneration, the center of one’s field of vision becomes distorted and eventually completely occluded. Certain types of color blindness can also make use of a standard keyboard more difficult, as can other disorders like glaucoma. Click on the links for simultions of how these can affect your vision.
