Genie Joystick
With the Genie Joystick you can•
•Control your wheelchair
•Access a computer
•Operate a Mobile Phone
•Operate environmental and communication aid devices
The Genie joystick is designed for a person who wishes to use the
same joystick to drive their chair, operate seat function, control
their computer mouse, control their mobile phone and access their
communication or environmental control device. Just one button or a
flick of the joystick is all that is required to switch modes from,
for example, driving the wheelchair to controlling their computer
mouse and back again. It is simple to use with no complex menus or
displays.
The Genie joystick has a wireless computer mouse built-in. This
comprises of an InfraRed transmitter within the joystick and a mouse
emulator that plugs into the USB port of your computer. When the
wheelchair is positioned close to the emulator an invisible link is
made between the Genie joystick and your computer. When computer
access mode is selected the Genie joystick is used to move the mouse
on the screen. Mouse movements are fully proportional and give
smooth accurate control of the Windows" mouse pointer. Pressing
button 1 activates the left click, whilst pressing button 2
activates the right click.
The Genie joystick can be supplied with an internal bluetooth module
enabling wireless control over a SmartPhone running ClickToPhone
software. When telephone mode is selected the Genie joystick can be
used to browse the contents of your phone•s contact list, make and
receive calls, and send text messages.
The Genie joystick can be connected to an environmental control
and/or communication aid device. The joystick can then be used to
make selections on the external device. The Genie joystick can be
interfaced to any device that can already be controlled by one or
more switches. The joystick movements simply replace the action of
pressing switches. For example a device which requires one switch
for "select" and another for "scan" could be interfaced so that a
left deflection of the joystick is "select" and a right deflection
of the joystick is "scan•. Interface cables are available for most
popular environmental control and communication aid devices.
