Product Description

Assistive Technology Desktop Joystick

Rock

’ is the most adaptable mouse alternative 

on the market specifically designed to address 

the needs of computer users with limited hand 

control, motor skill difficulties, poor hand-eye 

co-ordination,  lack  of  manual  dexterity  and 

involuntary muscle spasms.
It  is  especially  suitable  for  improving  access 

for  children  and  young  people  with  some 

special educational needs, learning difficulties, 

for  those  whose  work  entails  long  periods  of 

computer use and for older people and others 

with movement impairment.
The joystick requires only a light touch which, 

together with the function buttons, makes for 

easy navigation, selection and manipulation of 

objects on the computer screen.
The  ‘

Rock

’  emulates  a  computer  mouse  but, 

with  fingertip  control  and  the  need  for  only 

minimal  hand  movement,  reduces  wrist  and 

elbow  fatigue,  requires  far  less  effort  and  is 

less tiring.
The symmetrical design enables users to work 

with  either  hand  without  having  to  angle  the 

wrist,  and  the  unit  can  also  be  configured  for 

‘left-handed’  operation.  Its  large,  integrated 

hand  support/palm  rest  makes  work  posture 

more relaxed and less strained.
