[laptop-accessibility] Fwd: [Sugar-devel] screenreader for sugar

[Samuel Sennott]

Capacitive surfaces work differently than resistive ones in multiple ways in addition to the conductivity needs.

To learn about how to make adaptations to headsticks and such for accessing capacitive surfaces, check out www.Rjcooper.com .  Also, the folks who make the pogo stylus are really responsive.  

Also, here is one more, a tutorial from the AAC-RERC http://www.google.com/m/url?client=safari&ei=sQ9wTKiVOqTcM-KQoBM&hl=en&oe=UTF-8&q=http://aac-rerc.psu.edu/documents/headpointer_iphone.pdf&ved=0CBAQFjAA&usg=AFQjCNFKAOVxjGMuDolAxebfz2X0J0KcIQ

I could try to find them if you want, but I didn't catch it on 5 minutes of Googling.  I think the solution had something to do with attaching metal to the end of the prosthetic.  The results where that it is possible but doesn't work very well...
