Experience clarity and confidence with the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5 Active. This feature-packed smartwatch is a valuable piece of assistive technology designed to support NDIS participants with visual impairments, motor challenges, or executive function difficulties.
The standout feature is the massive 2.0-inch LCD display. Significantly larger than standard smartwatch screens, it offers exceptional readability for text, numbers, and health data, making it a practical choice for users with low vision. Combined with Bluetooth Calling and an incredible 18-day battery life, it serves as a reliable safety companion that requires minimal maintenance.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
Visual Accessibility (Large Screen): The expansive 2.0-inch screen allows for larger fonts and clearer icons. This reduces eye strain and makes navigating menus easier for participants with visual processing disorders or low vision.
Safety & Emergency Contact: The built-in microphone and speaker enable Bluetooth calling directly from the wrist. This allows participants to answer calls from support workers or family immediately, ensuring they are reachable even if their phone is out of reach or in a bag.
Supporting Executive Function (Battery Life): Frequent charging is a barrier for many users. With up to 18 days of battery life, this watch reduces the cognitive load of daily maintenance, ensuring the device is actually charged and working when needed.
Health & Anxiety Management: Continuous tracking of Heart Rate and SpO2 (Blood Oxygen) provides vital data for managing health conditions. Stress monitoring features help users identify and regulate anxiety levels throughout the day.
Waterproof Durability: Rated 5ATM waterproof, it can be worn in the shower or pool, ensuring the participant is connected and their health is monitored even during personal care or hydrotherapy.
