Ravencourt Living Easy Music Player - EMPY
A way for people living with dementia, poor coordination or visual impairment to listen to music with ease. People living with dementia and their carers reported to us the challenges they face in continuing to enjoy listening to the radio, however the complexity of controls and the ease with which it is possible to de-tune the radio and end up with the distressing white noise that occurs between stations, often results in individuals giving up using their radio at all. The Easy Music Player solves this by using a DAB radio with one button operation, making it easier than ever to operate by someone living with dementia. It also features a USB player with automatic bookmarking for audio books, and can also be used as a Bluetooth speaker. The display is clear and high contrast making it easy to set up by people living with visual impairment.
