Professional guidance helps The switch itself is simple, but it only helps once it is placed well and connected to something the person can control. Picking the right switch type and mounting position, and setting up how it drives a device, goes much better with an OT, SLP, or ATP. A family could manage it alone, but results are usually better with professional help.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The BIG Candy Corn 2 is an access switch that activates when a person's hand or body is near or touching its large surface, so no pressing force is needed. It uses a proximity sensor that doesn't need calibration, and it gives a beep and a light when triggered (both can be turned off). The surface is nearly twice the size of the LITTLE Candy Corn, which helps someone with limited fine motor control or low vision find and hit the target. It runs on 2 AA batteries, which are included. This is only the switch: it has to be plugged into a speech device, tablet, computer, or other switch-adapted device to do anything.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Batteries are included; once they are in place, the switch senses a hand or body near its surface without any calibration.
  • With a guide
    1. Connect the switch to your device, using a switch interface if the device needs one.
    2. Decide whether to keep or turn off the beep and light feedback based on what helps the user.
  • With professional help
    An OT, SLP, or ATP can help choose the best switch, position it so the user can reach it reliably, and set up how it controls the device. Plan for a session of about an hour, plus follow-up trials.
