NavBar™, Silver, Coloured Keys, Under-Panel Mount

Please note: the audio module is supplied separately and is available in either a horizontal or vertical configuration (and in either black or silver).

Kiosks, ATMs, ticketing machines and voting terminals usually present Information about available products and services via a visual display or touch screen. NavBar™ is a highly tactile interface that improves accessibility, making audio navigation and selection of screen based menus possible. An audio description of available menu options is transmitted to the user through a headset, handset or cochlea implant. When the desired menu page or menu option is located it can be selected by the press of a distinctive tactile button. Internal colour coded illumination makes location of individual keys much easier for those with partial vision. The keytop’s distinctive shape and tactile symbols provide the primary means of identifying a key’s specific function.

The intensity of keytop illumination can be adjusted or turned off when not in use. By use of the NavBar™ utility software, default illumination status and ‘wake-up’ behaviour can be selected. The USB key-press codes can also be changed. Successful implementation of the NavBar™ requires a compliant host application featuring synthesized or recorded human voice audio-tags. Connection to the host system is via a single USB cable (supplied separately).

This particular variant features a silver coloured front plate with 4 coloured and 2 illuminated buttons and is designed to be mounted to the underside of a panel.
