The​ ​world​ ​is​ ​becoming​ ​mobile.​ ​However,​ ​we​ ​have left​ ​behind​ ​millions​ ​of​ ​people​ ​who​ ​cannot​ ​use​ ​a​ ​touch​ ​screen.​ People with severe physical disabilities resulting from Cerebral Palsy, Spinal Cord Injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) or neuromuscular diseases.

 

We have created Mouse4all​ to enable ​everyone​ ​to​ ​access​ ​an​ ​Android tablet​ ​or​ ​smartphone​ with alternative input interfaces: switches, adapted mouse, trackball or joystick. Our solution makes accessible any Android device and all its installed apps through our own app available in Google Play and a plug-and-play hardware connection box.

 

Mouse4all boosts the autonomy​ of persons with severe physical disabilities. It improves their self-esteem​ while empowering them to make their own decisions and participate in the society. Our users can access​ ​internet and stay​ ​connected​ with friends & family through messaging and social networks, everywhere anytime.
