| Annotation | While technology can open many doors for people with limitations, extra steps are often necessary to ensure that the technology will work for them. There are many Internet Web sites about adaptive technology for disabled and blind people. This article describes the work of a few of the American organisations or databases involved in such work, including: the Alliance for Technology Access; ABLEDATA, an electronic database of information on assistive technology and rehabilitation equipment in the United States; and the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA). |
