Impact Resistant Visual Timer | NDIS ADHD Time Management Aid

Facilitate independence, reduce transition anxiety, and improve executive functioning with the 60-Minute Visual Timer with Protective Case. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this durable time management tool is specifically designed to support NDIS participants living with Autism (ASD), ADHD, or Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD).

Unlike standard digital timers that require calculation or reading skills, this device uses a high-contrast disappearing coloured disc to make the passage of time concrete and visible. Crucially, this model is encased in a removable, shock-absorbent TPU cover. This protective layer makes it uniquely suitable for participants who may experience dysregulation or behavioural outbursts, ensuring the device survives accidental drops or rough handling—a key factor in ensuring "Reasonable and Necessary" value for money.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Mitigating Time Blindness: For individuals with ADHD who struggle to sense the passing of time, the visual disc provides an immediate, continuous reference point, bridging the gap between "knowing" the time and "feeling" it.

• Managing Transitions: By clearly visualizing how much time remains for a preferred activity (e.g., screen time), it reduces the "shock" of stopping, significantly lowering the likelihood of anxiety-induced meltdowns.

• Sensory Regulation: The device operates in complete silence (no ticking), accommodating auditory hypersensitivity. The alarm volume and duration are fully adjustable to suit the user's specific sensory profile.

• Cognitive Support: The intuitive interface requires no reading or complex programming, making it accessible for children with learning delays or adults requiring simplified cognitive aids.

Key Features & Benefits

• Impact-Resistant Design: Enclosed in a non-toxic, matte TPU protective sleeve that prevents cracks and damage from falls, offering superior longevity compared to standard hard-plastic timers.

• Silent Ticking Mechanism: Allows for use in quiet environments (classrooms, libraries, therapy sessions) without the distraction of a rhythmic ticking sound that can disrupt focus.

• Visual Disappearing Disc: A red (or coloured) disc vanishes as time elapses, providing a clear visual cue that is easily understood from a distance.

• Customizable Alerts: Features adjustable settings for both alarm volume (Low/Loud) and duration (3 or 60 seconds), ensuring the alert is effective without being startling.

• Simple Operation: Functionality is streamlined to a simple turn-dial, promoting ease of use for participants with fine motor challenges.
