This is a GitHub repository intended to act as a template for an open source assistive technology device. It is meant to contain all design files, build files, and documentation for the project.
The is an assistive technology device that.
The device is comprised of off-the-shelf electronics and 3D printed parts.
The is open assistive technology (OpenAT). Under the terms of the open source licenses, the device may be built, used, and improved upon by anyone.
The overall cost of materials is about $ (excluding component shipping fee).
The current version of the device (v1.0) has been built and user tested.
This is an open-source assistive technology, so anyone is free to build it. All of the files and instructions required to build the device are contained within this repository. Refer to the Maker Guide below.

Want to help? We are always looking for volunteers to help build these devices for the community. If you have the skills and want to contribute, please contact us via email at [email protected].
The Maker Guide contains all the necessary information to build this device, including tool lists, assembly instructions, and testing.
The Bill of Materials lists all of the parts and components required to build the Template Device.
Reference the Assembly Guide section of the Maker Guide for the tools and steps required to build each portion.
As open source assistive technology, you are welcomed and encouraged to improve upon the design.
