Lab Director: Robert Todd

The Accessible Education and Information Lab provides accessible information on education and technology to a wide audience.

For those that have trouble with motor skills we study and develop assistive technology. These devices are as simple as:

• Paper with printed lines can also help people without steady hands. 
• pencil grips for writing.
• Touch-screens and specialized keyboards to assist those that can’t use traditional input devices for computers.
