Contrary to popular belief, adaptive technology does not need to be expensive. Hyatt Computer Services' Darrell Hyatt uses eadily available computer software and equipment, such as a switch adapted mouse for only $20, when working with his clients.

Using such tools, Hyatt is able to create a custom solution specific to the individual's specific needs and goals - whether its enabling a non-verbal little girl to share her story of summer holidays with her classmates, enabling a physically disabled boy with limited hand function to type "I love you, Mommy," or enabling a grandfather who finds the text mysteriously shrinking to use email to stay connected with his grandkids.

Hyatt says, "This is so natural for me. I really listen to what my clients want to be able to do with the computer, and then, considering their abilities, skills and difficulties, I combine the tools in such a way that enable clients to do what they want to do. As each individual is unique, so is each solution. Computers have infinite potential, and the trick is to pass that infinite potential onto individuals, regardless of their level of disability, impairment or computer skills."

Darrell Hyatt has over 25 years experience working with computers. Darrell has training in social work, business administration, computer applications and trainer development. He has extensive knowledge and experience with a wide variety of adaptive technologies. He wants to use readily available technology to enable more people's abilities to shine.
