Excitim has undergone a complete site redesign, and it's looking very nice for it. They've a wide range of accessible toys and gadgets, including a 10 megapixel camera, bubble machines, remote control cars and many sensory toys. A really professional and friendly UK company that I highly recommend.
Excitim have released more superb looking switch accessible gadgets very recently. A very fine looking mini ghetto-blaster for those wanting a simple switch accessible music CD player.Very nice too, is their 10 mega-pixel Canon digital camera. They've found a really elegant solution for switch access via the USB socket. Would be great if Canon would keep this as a standard way of taking photos using a single click method.
Enabling Devices have an adapted V-Tech Kidizoom camera with a large control panel and motorised tripod for $399.99. It doesn't look like you can connect your own switches unfortunately, but I can see this being a really excellent solution for some.
If you fancy creating your own switch accessible camera, take a jump over to this OneSwitch D.I.Y. page.
Thanks to Ryan Savage and his ever thoughtful Mum, I finally got around to adapting a digital camera. This was to be a 13th birthday present for him, so I was very pleased that the adaptation worked out. I was even more pleased to later receive an e-mail containing four of the 100 plus photos Ryan took in just two days. Cracking photos, Ryan, great stuff!
For anyone wishing to have a bash at adapting their own digital camera / video recorder, I have just posted a D.I.Y. switch accessible digital camera guide. For those who would like me to adapt a VTech Kidizoom for them, please get in touch.
