The Logan® ProxPAD™ is a single-location communication and learning aid for persons with physical, visual, or cognitive impairments who require tangible objects or other site cues to initiate communication.

Therapists, educators, and caregivers will find the ProxPAD™ invaluable for fostering communication and learning in non-verbal individuals.
