Assistive Tech: As Easy as 1, 2, 3!

Wake up with confidence and independence. The Multi-Sensory Alarm Clock is a specialized piece of low-cost assistive technology designed to overcome the barriers of standard audio alarms.
For NDIS participants with hearing loss, low vision, or profound sleep inertia (common with ADHD or medication side effects), missing an alarm can lead to missed appointments and reliance on carers. This device uses a powerful "triple-threat" waking system: a tactile bed shaker, an extra-loud 110dB alarm, and a visual light prompt.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
Tactile Waking (Hearing Impairment): The vibrating puck (bed shaker) slides under the pillow or mattress. It physically shakes the user awake, providing a reliable alert for those who cannot hear standard buzzers, ensuring they can manage their own morning routine.
Overcoming Sleep Inertia (Heavy Sleepers): For participants who "sleep through anything" due to medication or neurodivergence, the combination of physical vibration and 110dB sound penetrates deep sleep cycles more effectively than a phone alarm.
Visual Accessibility (Low Vision): The extra-large 18 cm (7-inch) display features high-contrast digits that can be read from across the room without glasses. The brightness is fully adjustable to prevent eye strain or sleep disruption.
Customizable Sensory Input: Users can choose their preferred waking method—vibration only, sound only, or both. This supports participants with sensory processing differences who may find one mode too overwhelming or another ineffective.
Key Features & Benefits
Powerful Bed Shaker: Delivers strong vibrations to the pillow, ensuring the user wakes up without disturbing others in the house (if sound is off).
110dB Extra-Loud Alarm: Significantly louder than standard clocks, designed specifically for mild to moderate hearing loss or heavy sleepers.
High-Contrast 18cm Display: Large, clear numbers make time checks easy for users with visual impairments.
7-Colour Night Light: Acts as a visual prompt and comforting night light, supporting users who experience anxiety in the dark.
Mains Powered Reliability: Eliminates the risk of flat batteries causing a missed alarm, providing consistent support for daily schedules.
