Frequently Bought Together
Type with confidence, day or night. The X9 Performance Large Print Backlit Keyboard is a specialized piece of low-cost assistive technology designed to support NDIS participants with Low Vision, Macular Degeneration, or light sensitivity.
Standard keyboards can be difficult to navigate, especially in dim lighting. This keyboard combines oversized letter print with customizable LED backlighting . Users can choose from 7 different backlight colours and 3 brightness levels to create the perfect high-contrast environment for their specific visual needs (e.g., Green light may offer better contrast than White for some users).
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
Customisable Visual Support: The ability to change the backlight colour (Red, Blue, Green, Cyan, etc.) helps users find the specific contrast setting that reduces their eye strain and makes letters "pop," which is critical for progressive vision conditions.
Enhanced Readability: The key legends are significantly larger than standard keyboards. This reduces the need to hunch over the desk to see the keys, improving posture and reducing fatigue during digital tasks.
Cognitive & Motor Ease: The plug-and-play USB connection eliminates technical frustration (no batteries or pairing). The quiet, low-profile keys provide a soft typing experience, aiding users with sensory sensitivities to clicking sounds.
Digital Independence: By making the computer interface accessible, it empowers participants to manage their own emails, NDIS portal claims, and social connections independently.
