Invotek Safe-laser System
The Invotek, Safe-laser System is a Bluetooth keyboard that is activated using InvoTek's eye-safe laser. Each key on the Safe-laser keyboard is programmable and can function in several ways, including sending standard keyboard commands via USB or Bluetooth, providing digitized speech output, sending TV remote control functions, or performing internal Safe-laser System functions. The special laser provided with the system is eye-safe and meets FDA Class 1 specifications -- the safest possible classification. The Safe-laser System has been designed to provide a continuum of access options, from very simple "low tech" to complete computer access via a wireless keyboard. For example, one can start out just pointing the eye-safe laser* at a letter board or images and let a communication partner interpret what the point means. Using dwell or a secondary switch, the user can write out messages to the display, access recorded speech, or control a computer, tablet, or phone. You can also control the TV. Finally, connect the Safe Laser System to an inexpensive Android tablet and use our LaserChat Pro app to achieve text-to-speech output without or with word prediction
