Grasp Switch
Est. $40–$80
The Grasp Switch is a squeeze-activated switch that fits in the palm. A gentle squeeze is enough to trigger it, so it works for someone with limited hand strength or motor control. It's meant to control switch-accessible games, adapted toys, and environmental control systems, and the maker describes it as built for frequent use at school, in therapy, or at home. This is only the switch. It does nothing until it's connected to a switch-accessible device, and getting the right match between the person, their squeeze, and what they're controlling is where an OT or ATP can help most.

Ultimate Switch
$99.95
The Ultimate Switch is a ball end wobble switch: a ball on a toggle that activates when someone nudges it, so even a very light touch from the head, elbow, shoulder, or neck can work. It's built to take heavy use, and it can be paired with an appliance switch unit to run things like lights, kitchen appliances, and a television. It comes in several styles, including a gooseneck with clamp, a wireless version, and a switch-only option with no gooseneck, so the right choice depends on where and how it will be positioned. This is one piece of a larger setup, not a standalone tool. It needs something to control, and finding the best spot and body part for access is where an OT or ATP can help most.

Saucer Switches
$46.95
These saucer-shaped switches turn a light touch into a signal that can run a switch-accessible device, such as an adapted toy or a communication device. They're designed for someone who can't control or sustain the hand or wrist movements a traditional plate switch asks for. You can choose the standard Saucer Switch (7 inches across, 1 inch tall) or the smaller Mini-Saucer (about 3¼ inches across), and both weigh a quarter pound. A switch like this does nothing alone. It has to be plugged into something that responds to it, and choosing the right size and placement is easier with an OT or ATP.

iSwitch50
Est. $100–$250
The iSwitch50 is a 50 mm Bluetooth switch that lets someone operate a tablet, phone, or AAC (communication) device with a single press instead of using a touchscreen. It works with iOS and Android devices, and it offers 24 programmable functions, so the press can be set up to do different jobs depending on the person and the app. It's a good fit for someone who can't reliably touch a screen but can press a larger target. This is a piece of a larger setup, not a complete solution on its own. You'll need a compatible device, and the switch has to be paired with it and programmed. Choosing the right function and positioning the switch where the person can press it comfortably usually goes better with help from an OT, SLP, or ATP.

Solo Touch Switch
Est. $60–$150
The Solo Touch Switch is a Bluetooth switch that responds to very light pressure, so a person with limited hand movement can still trigger it. Pressing it sends a command to a device it's paired with, which lets someone control that device without needing to grip, push hard, or move precisely. A switch like this does nothing alone: you'll need a Bluetooth-compatible device or app that accepts switch input, and you'll have to pair them. Because touch sensitivity, placement, and the device it controls all affect how well it works, an OT or ATP can help you choose the right setup.

Solo Range
Est. $80–$350
The Solo Range is a family of small Bluetooth access devices that includes switches, a joystick and touch controls. They let someone operate a tablet or computer wirelessly when a standard touchscreen, mouse or keyboard is hard to use. The range works with Android, iOS, Mac and Windows devices. Because the range offers several different input styles, the main task is matching the right one to how the person moves and what they need to do on the device. Choosing the right piece and setting it up usually goes better with an OT, SLP or ATP.

Ultimate Switchbox
Est. $150–$350
The Ultimate Switchbox is a USB switch interface that lets up to six switches control a computer as if they were keyboard keys, mouse buttons, or gamepad buttons. Each socket can be set to a single key, a modifier like Shift or Control, a mouse click or cursor move, or a short macro of up to four keystrokes. Settings are spread across four levels, so one set of switches can do different jobs, and a seventh socket or an onboard button changes levels. It works without extra software and comes with default settings that often need no changes. This is the interface only, so you'll need your own switches and a computer, and finding the right mapping for a particular user is where an ATP, OT, or SLP helps most.

Surface Pro EyeGaze Education: eyetuitive for Windows
Est. $1,500–$3,500
This bundle pairs a Windows Surface Pro tablet with eyetuitive's eye gaze system, so a student can control the tablet by looking at the screen instead of touching it. It's put together for the special education classroom, and the maker describes it as portable, sturdy, and easy to use. Because the tablet and the eye gaze pieces come as one package, you're not hunting for compatible parts yourself. Eye gaze works best when it's matched to the student's vision, positioning, and goals, so expect to get help from a therapist or ATP when choosing software and tuning the setup.

Big Buddy Button Red
$75.00
The Big Buddy Button Red is a large red switch with a 4.5-inch (11.5 cm) target area, so it is easy to hit even with limited or imprecise arm and hand movement. It takes only about 5.3 ounces (150 grams) of force to activate, which suits someone with weak or tiring muscles. It is designed for people with moderate to severe motor difficulties in the upper body. This is only the switch. It does nothing on its own, so you will need a device, toy, or communication tool for it to control, and an OT or ATP can help match it to the right setup.

Monarch
$15,500.00
The Monarch is a braille tablet with a refreshable display that is 10 lines tall and 32 cells wide. Because it shows several lines at once, it can present tactile graphics right alongside braille text, so charts, diagrams, and words can be read together under the fingertips. It connects to downloadable digital textbooks and to APH's Tactile Graphics Image Library, which makes it a fit for students and other readers who are blind or have low vision and want to get materials into their hands faster. It's a high-end, dedicated device, so it makes sense to talk with a teacher of students with visual impairments or an ATP about how it fits a learner's materials and routines.

U-Step 2 Walker, Seat and Basket
$539.95
The U-Step 2 is a four-wheeled walker with a U-shaped base that surrounds you as you walk, so it braces you from several directions instead of just in front. The brakes hold the walker still until you lightly squeeze a release lever, and it stops as soon as you let go, which helps when standing up from a chair because it won't roll away. It has a padded seat with an adjustable backrest, a removable basket, adjustable height and 4" non-marking casters. The listed weight capacity is 375 lbs. It measures 23"W x 22"H x 25"L, with a 20" seat width. It's a complete walker, but a therapist or ATP can help confirm the height and brake tension fit you and that it suits your balance and how you'll use it.

Super Clamp
Est. $25–$75
The Super Clamp is a mounting base that grips onto a round tube (13 to 55mm across) or onto a flat edge like a table, tray, or frame. Once it's fixed in place, you attach a mounting arm to it to hold a switch, a communication aid, or another assistive device where the person can reach it. It works with most mounting systems, including the Magic Arm, Gooseneck, Flexzi 1, and Flexzi 2 switch mounts, and it can be moved from place to place when needs change. This is only the base: you'll need an arm and the device itself, and choosing the right position and combination usually goes best with help from a therapist or ATP.

REHAdapt Rectangular Mounting Plate
Est. $25–$75
The REHAdapt Rectangular Mounting Plate gives you a flat, rectangular surface for attaching switches and communicators to a mounting setup so they stay put during use. It's listed as compatible with the Cosmo Switch, iTalk2, and BIG Candy Corn 2, among other devices. This is a mounting piece, not a complete solution: it holds a device in place but does nothing on its own. You'll also need the switch or communicator itself, plus whatever arm or stand it attaches to. Getting the position right is the key part, and that's where a therapist or ATP can help.

REHAdapt Small Circular Mounting Plate
Est. $15–$50
This small round mounting plate holds a Buddy Button, Specs, Orby or Candy Corn switch so it stays put instead of sliding around. It's made to work with REHAdapt Mounting Arms, so it's one link in a mounting setup, not a complete solution. You'll still need the arm and a switch, and getting the switch in the right spot for the person using it is where an OT or ATP can help most.

REHAdapt Piko Button Mounting Plate
Est. $20–$75
This mounting plate holds a Piko Button in place so it stays where the person can reach it. It fits both 30 mm and 50 mm switches and connects to Inclusive Mounting Solutions. It's a piece of a larger setup: you'll need the Piko Button itself and a compatible mount or arm to attach the plate to. Because the right position depends on how the person moves and where they can press reliably, an OT or ATP can help you pick the mounting arrangement.

Manfrotto Small Circular Mounting Plate
Est. $15–$40
This small round plate attaches a switch, such as the Buddy Button IC, to a Manfrotto mounting arm so the switch can be held in a set spot. It works with the Gooseneck Switch Mounting Arm, the Magic Arm, the Variable Friction Arm, and the Lightweight Mounting Arms. It's a good fit if someone needs their switch placed at a specific spot, at home, at school, or in a clinic. This is only the plate. You'll need a compatible arm and a switch, and getting the position right is often easier with an OT or ATP helping.
