Point-It! is a compact PS2 compatible joystick for use as an alternative to a mouse input. It gives smooth accurate proportional control of a Windows mouse pointer. This small unobtrusive unit can be located close to a user or operated on a desktop. In addition it has fixings in its base so that it can be attached to a Universal Mounting System and positioned effectively for chin control. The joystick is a professional non-contacting type as found on powered wheelchairs and is available with 3 different knobs: ball, taper and standard+switch (shown in picture). In addition a sponge ball can be fitted over the standard knob. Four switches are used to operate mouse button functions left click, double click, right click and mouse speed. A fifth switch located in the top of the standard knob also operates the left button. 3.5mm jack sockets allow connection of standard switches for those who find it difficult to operate the switches on the unit itself. DragLock feature allows a user to drag without having to keep the left button pressed. Point-It! is supplied with free "TypeMatic" on screen keyboard software. A USB to PS2 interface is available separately for USB only computers.
Type-Matic is the On-Screen Keyboard software designed to be used in conjunction with Point-It! PC Joystick. It enables people who cannot use an ordinary computer keyboard to input text into any Windows® program!
A layout of cells represents the keys of a keyboard. When the mouse pointer is positioned over a cell and the left button is clicked the key the cell contains is sent to the active program.
Advanced word prediction features speed up the typing process. As you type Type-Matic predicts not only the word you are typing but also the next word! Abbreviations are also used so that commonly used phrases can be typed quickly, for example, type "dyk" and get "Did you know".
The Type-Matic layout is completely configurable. Colours, fonts, grid size etc. can all be easily edited. Each cell can have its own key, colour, picture and help text. Type-Matic can be fully customized to suit different users and comes with a number of practical layouts to get you started straight away.
