The
Heath-board is a fun and exciting
interactive creative tool, which, through the user’s touch and
movement, produces instant audio and/or visual responses. The
Heath-board with a paper
or canvas attached to its surface can be used with a karaoke machine
allowing the user to hear sounds produced as they draw or paint. In
real time, the artist hears the results of their actions. An echo
effect is added for excitement and also to encourage the artist to
experience the next action and resulting sound. This has
significantly increased both excitement and attention span in many of
our young artists. The
Heath-board, when used
with the
Heath-board software on
a computer, can convert the user’s touch and movement on the board to
trigger any sound and/or image file in real time. These files can
be triggered randomly or sequentially based on the amplitude of the
touch or movement of the user. Any sound or image file can be
installed in custom sets for specific needs.
Walter Heath, who works with children with autism at Colonial
Intermediate Unit 20, had a vision. Walter is an artist, educator
and a true innovator. While working with these very special children,
he developed an art program called “Free the Artist”. The program
started with a small group of six children. It was so successful,
the program is now in 32 Autistic Support classrooms serving 200
artists with autism.
In September of 2006, Walter saw the need to find a company to
manufacture and market the HEATH-board. This need led to the
birth of Easi Education, Inc., owned and operated by John Abel and Lucy
Eron. John serves as Production Manager and Technical Developer.
Lucy is the Financial, Business and General Manager of Easi
Education. David Heath is a programming wizard who designs all
the computer programs, and Bahereh Khodadoost is a creative consultant.
Sienna Mae Heath is the voice for the alphabets and numbers on the
software. Walter continues to serve as an advisor for the
company.
The
Heath-board Team has taken Walter’s dream
for Special Needs Children and turned it into a reality. By keeping our
motto, It’s All About the Kids as our motivator, who knows what new
innovative products we can create.
