This app appears to be originally conceived for the passenger/navigator in a car while on the road. However, it seemed like an ideal app to use with an iPhone or iPad (despite being created specifically for the iPhone) for a child or adult that might have visual/spacial deficits or require orientation to an unfamiliar environment.
The app provides basic information such as speed using an animated speedometer similar to that of a car, displaying speed in real time. Additionally, there is an odometer that tracks distance driven. More advanced information available is average speed, maximum speed (don't complain if your passengers catch you speeding), longitude, latitude and altitude. Also, there's a compass and Google map that can track where you've been and can be zoomed in and out to see outlying areas.
It really doesn't provide anything you can't get from any GPS app, the only difference being that it's presented in an interesting format that might appeal to all ages and might actually keep the kids quiet in the back of the minivan. That is, as long as they're not fighting for the iphone/ipad. My suggestion then is to pick up an inexpensive iPad clone, (see earlier post).

Control your computer with your eyes.
The MINDWAVE NeuroSky headset can detect Blink and thus be operated by a control software (Virtual NeuroBrain) or as a switch (Kontactor) for use with third-party software.

It has a virtual keyboard and mouse optimized when all orders are for one single push of a button (or wink) to minimize the fatigue. This program is much more accurate and compatible with a variety of devices, switches or head pointer. Compatible with The helmet NeuroSky MINDWAVE, c Is the only French keyboard-controllable flash.

> - Internet browsing with the mouse virtual
> - Writing in a notebook with the virtual keyboard
> - Includes multimedia features for changing the music or sound volume
> - Non-intrusive software that allows a large reading area
> - Selecting text to send to a speech
- KONTACTOR The software allows to use the headset as NeuroSky MINDWAVE switch (detection Blink). making it the first contactor public by detecting winks . It also allows any switch to simulate any key on the keyboard or mouse in order to use any specialized software.
It's an ideal solution for a disabled person who wish to use a computer by is own.
