M³

HeadMouse® Extreme
HeadMouse Extreme allows individuals challenged by significant physical disabilities to access DynaVox M3 devices quickly and easily. HeadMouse Extreme connects to and is powered by the M3 through the USB port. It is mounted to the M3, and measures the augmented communicator’s head movements. This technology uses an infrared light to track a small disposable target that is placed on the user’s forehead or glasses. Positioning the pointer and dwelling for a selected period of time makes selections. Dwell time is adjustable. An integrated electronic tilt sensor allows the HeadMouse Extreme to be used in even the most unusual mounting situations.

Tracker Pro
The Tracker Pro operates from the USB port of the M3 and gives people with significant physical disabilities the ability to control their device without separate battery packs or power adapters. Mount the Tracker Pro in the location that best suits your needs. The high-resolution camera tracks a tiny reflective dot worn on your forehead or glasses. Clicking is accomplished with switches or by dwelling.

SCATIR Switch
The Self-Calibrating Auditory Tone Infrared (SCATIR) Switch is designed for use by persons who experience difficulty in activating mechanical switches. It is a momentary-contact optical switch with auditory feedback. The SCATIR switch works by detecting a beam of reflected pulsed infrared light. It is suitable for use with a variety of control gestures, such as eye-blink, eyebrow movement, finger movement, head movement, and facial muscle movement. It can be activated at a distance so the controlling body part does not need to be in physical contact with the switch sensor.

Keyguards
Keyguards are clear plastic coverings that protect the M3 device from moisture or debris. They are available in a variety of layouts that match the layouts of the InterAACt page sets and templates included with the M3 software. Wireforms to secure the keyguard to the M3 are also included.

Protective Carrying Case
Padded and water-resistant, these cases make it easy to safely transport the M3 and its power supply. A shoulder strap and handle are included with these heavy-duty cases.

Handles and Shoulder Straps
You can purchase additional handles or shoulder straps for your carrying case.

User-Accessible Carrying Case
A padded, water-resistant case ships with each device. The case protects the M3 while allowing you to use it without removing it from the case. The M3 can also be mounted while in the case. A shoulder strap and handle are included for carrying ease and comfort.

Mounting Options
For convenience and ease of use, mount the M3 using either mounting plates or desk mounts to desks, trays, rolling floor stands, or wheelchairs. Both Daessy mounts and standard VESA 75 and VESA 100 fittings (both hole patterns in the same mounting plate) are available.

Backpack Carrying Case for the M³
This two shoulder backpack can fit a M3 with a smaller front pocket perfect for the charger or even some school supplies. The backpack has a strip that can be buckled around the waist to help disperse the weight t the hips.

AC Charger for Internal Battery
This AC charger re-charges 3the internal lithium ion battery using household current.

External Battery
The M3 can also be powered by an external flat battery that plugs into the charger port on the device and provides additional runtime. Use the AC charger adapter to charge the external battery.

12V Adapter
You can also use a 12V power source (such as the cigarette lighter in your car) to power your M3. The adapter end plugs in to any 12V receptacle and the other end plugs in to the charger port on the M3.

AC Charger Adapter and Power Cord
One AC charger adapter and power cord ships with each M3. This device charges the M3’s internal battery while it is installed in the M3 or supplies household current to the M3 for times when the battery is not available. Extras are available for customers who want to keep charger adapters in several locations or who need to replace a lost or damaged charger adapter.

PhoneIT affords augmented communicators the opportunity to hold private telephone conversations by connecting a standard telephone landline to their M3 device. Augmented communicators can use PhoneIT to “pick up” and “hang up” the receiver, and dial phone numbers. Setup is simple and straightforward, and the CD included with your purchase includes PhoneIT page sets for the M3.
