His voice is very weak, so this is a miracle of sorts.Assistive Technology Coordinator, Center for Independence of the Disabled San Mateo, California I just wanted to let you know that we have successfully installed and programed a VoiceIR [System's Voice Controller] unit for my client George Dill who is a quad. Even though there is a lot of room noise produced by his bed and other mediucal equipment, it works well enough that he can control his HDTV, TIVO and sound system using his voice. His voice is very weak, so this is a miracle of sorts.Steve Freier, Assistive Technology Coordinator, Ce -
Already given me so much freedom... adding control over bed, deadbolt, & door openerNow that I've gotten some things working with the VoiceIR it's already given me so much freedom and I'm very happy to be able to control things on my own even if it's just the TV and stereo [adding control over bed, deadbolt, & door opener]. Thank you for making these available.Ruth Ann Rahal, Greeley, Colorado

It's a wonderful system for someone who is blind and paralyzed!Just wanted to let you know that I set up M.G.'s VoiceIR QuickStart Package today, and it works like a charm!!! Very very easy to program, easy to change commands, great for him (being blind) because he can tell if it's recognized his command. What I was also happy about was that his voice recognition was the same no matter what position he is in in bed. We got all the TV commands programmed, and they work beautifully for him. He's thrilled with the independence this affords him. Next week we will do the stereo and satellite radio, as well as his assistance call chime system. Thanks again. It's a wonderful system for someone who is blind and paralyzed -- he can finally have a bit of independence, which is hard to come by in his situation!Lori Russell, High School Special Education Adapti

I am now able to watch TV when I'm alone; my wife works full time so I am alone a lot.The VoiceIR Infrared Voice Controller has been a great addition to making me more independent. Before the VoiceIR, I had to keep calling on my wife to change the TV channel or volume, which became rather annoying after a short period of time. I also have the Vocalize! Cell Phone Complete Voice Control System, and at times the TV would be to loud to answer my phone, now I can turn it down before answering the phone. The Vocalize bed mic makes things even better to control the phone. I am now able to watch TV when I'm alone; my wife works full time so I am alone a lot. I have started out slow with the VoiceIR to get use to it, and can't wait for hot weather to use it on my air conditioner. I'm planning to put my stereo in my bedroom along with a DVD player. [In the photo] The tube that's close to my mouth is for me to get water and to hold the bed microphone that goes to my [Vocalize] wheelchair cell phone system.Mr. Robin D. Walls, Brunswick, Maine

Gave Tommy back some of much needed control over his life! Lifted his spirits and improves quality of life.We were able to utilize a multi-step macro which enables him to turn on & off several devices with just one command (TV, cable, DVD, and surround sound). We, also, use one for Volume control so one command can increase the volume in intervals of three not one. My son's quality of life continues to increase daily. Thanks, again for all of your help as well.Cele Donahue (Mom), Hyattsville, Maryland

Rafting in a wheelchair on rural Kenai Peninsula, Alaska"We got Comfort Carriers for all of our Independent Living Centers on the Kenai Peninsula here in Alaska. I went on a rafting trip last weekend with a friend who uses a wheel chair. The Comfort Carrier was a lifesaver and worked great! I took pictures although I realize I don’t have any really good ones of the Comfort Carrier in use. You can see that he has it on in every picture though. We used the Comfort Carrier to get Doug on/off the small airplane (an Otter). Then we used the Comfort Carrier to get him in and out of the raft and awesome Kili-Kart chair. I am going to go advocate for this at Grant Air, one of our smaller airlines that currently carries people on and off the airplane with no aids. If you how some Comfort Carrier brochures that would be helpful. Thanks!"Amanda Neal, Independent Living Center - Homer, Al -
Comfort Carrier made going to Portugal for Stem Cell Surgery Possible!"We returned home from Portugal yesterday. The surgery went very well. Now John will have extended physical therapy and any gains he may have from the stem cell graft may show up over the next months and years. The Comfort Carry worked very well moving John between wheelchair and airplane seat. My husband and I did the transfers with a helper from the airline quickly moving the Roho seat cushion from one seat to another. My husband lifted John's torso using the middle set of hand loops. I lifted his legs... I cannot imagine how we would have accomplished the moves without the carrier. It was especially necessary on the way home when my son had a big incision on the back of his neck and we had to be extra careful. Anyway, I was extremely thankful that I had come across a link to your site and your product before the trip. Thanks for your great invention in the Comfort Carrier. We practiced with it at home a couple of times before we took off, and it definitely made all our lives easier during the transfers. My husband has had back surgery and I'm a 56-year-old woman with a pacemaker, but we could handle the job. In every airport they looked at us with disbelief when we said we would be moving John by ourselves." Read the entire interesting story about going to Portugal for this stem cell surgery procedure!Elanie Link (for son John), Illinois, USA

Emergency Preparedness - Invaluable when the time comes!"I was thinking of you this week, In Washington state we had a lot of flooding. Unfortunately I tried to drive through it and stalled out my van and had to be rescued by the fire dept. My son, [Chris] was in the van with me. It damaged his [power]chair. We took a cabulance to a hotel and stayed a few days. Luckily I had Chris's [Comfort Carrier] portable sling with me [to get him out of the vehicle]. (I keep clothes and a small charger in my car in case of bad weather) my daughter was able to come over [to the hotel] and help me transfer him into bed and get him up [with the Comfort Carrier]. I don't know how we would of done it without the [Comfort Carrier] sling. The water has receeded and we are back home now."Mary Schlechty - Washington, USA

Well-made, works quite well, quick deliveryI purchased the carrier sling that they carry. It is well made, will work quite well, and their delivery time was very quick. It is almost exactly like the sling I have for my barrier free lift, but is made of sturdier material and with handles at the appropriate place. I am going to try to find out more about their PowerGrip assisted hand device. It would be so fantastic be able to give myself a drink, let alone be able to feed myself :-) :-) :-).Joan
