Ease the daily stress of transitions and combat "time blindness" with the EooCoo Visual Petal Timer. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this intuitive cognitive aid is specifically designed to support NDIS participants living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, or executive function challenges who require concrete visual scaffolding to understand the passage of time.
For neurodivergent individuals, abstract concepts like "five more minutes" can be difficult to process, frequently leading to task avoidance, anxiety, and behavioural meltdowns when preferred activities abruptly end. This timer translates time into a tangible, shrinking visual display using a unique colourful petal countdown. It allows the user to clearly see exactly how much time remains without relying on standard digital numbers alone. Engineered with a silent operation to prevent auditory distraction or sensory overload, this timer provides a non-confrontational, predictable cue that fosters independent routine management and smoother transitions between tasks.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
-
Mitigating Time Blindness: Translates abstract time into a visual, shrinking petal display, helping participants with ADHD understand and pace their activities.
-
Transition Management: Provides a clear, predictable warning before an activity (such as screen time) concludes, significantly reducing the anxiety and resistance associated with sudden transitions.
-
Supporting Executive Function: Externalises working memory by visually mapping out duration, allowing participants to initiate and sustain focus on homework or self-care routines independently.
-
Sensory Regulation (Auditory): Features a silent counting mechanism with no loud ticking, preventing auditory overwhelm for participants with sensory processing differences.
