Physical Book Page Turner for Disabled + Wireless Hand or Foot Pedals (or Two Ability Switches)

Reliable, portable, quiet, and affordable. Page-turning is an important ancillary process of reading a printed book or magazine. This mechanical process, however, is a source of great challenge and inconvenience to many people with disabilities, elderly readers, even musicians. PageFlip is a revolutionary, electronic page-turner to solve this problem.  Simply slide the book into the book holder, preload up to 10 sheets (20 pages) into page slots, and activate the device to begin turning pages.  Place it on a table, one of our wheelchair mounts, a music stand, or a kitchen counter for convenient hands-free reading.

Weight: 12.9 ounces (367 grams) Shipping box: 21"x3"x3" and 4 lbs For DISABLED: An automatic page-turner would be an assistive technology to people with limited bilateral upper extremity function caused by neurological impairment, musculoskeletal problems, and generalized weakness. Included in this population are people who have suffered cerebrovascular accidents, spinal cord injuries, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and arthritic joint changes. The automatic page turner would enhance the quality of life of the elderly and disabled by improving their independence in this activity of daily living. A caregiver must be available to install successive batches of 10 sheets after each 20-page reading session. This process guarantees 100% reliability in turning one page at a time. ELDERLY READERS: An automatic page-turner provides avid readers with convenient book support and page-turning features. It permits them to discover the convenience of hands-free reading. The robotic device can supplant book holders for use with cookbooks in kitchens, books in libraries, reading material on exercise equipment, or simply for reading in bed. Hands-free reading is limited to 10 sheets (20 pages) at a time before the next batch of sheets must be attached to the page-turner. This tradeoff assures the reader that only one page will be turned at a time. No other automatic page-turner can make that guarantee. This patent-pending design guarantees 100% reliability in turning one page at a time. It requires the user, or caregiver, to separate up to 10 sheets (20 pages) at a time into slots that will be individually turned. Subsequent batches of pages will then need to be processed similarly.
