Provides a Wide Variety of Textures
The SpaceKraft Sensory Ultraviolet Tactile Wall Panel features a wide variety of different toys, textures, materials and objects to interact with. The amount of choice offered by this wall panel is perfect for children with autism or other sensory processing disorders because it caters to a huge range of different sensory preferences.
Perfect for Use in Sensory Dark Rooms
When illuminated with an ultraviolet light, the UV Tactile Wall Panel can illuminate a sensory dark room with a soothing neon glow, helping people to focus and develop visual tracking skills without becoming overstimulated. Movement of neon objects in a dark room is more pronounced than ordinary objects, which is highly effective for developing visual processing skills.
Suitable for Users with Visual Hypersensitivity
People with visual hypersensitivity can often be overwhelmed when presented with too many different forms of visual stimulation. One of the advantages of a darkroom is that it lets users focus on individual visual phenomena, letting them explore the sense of sight in a gentle, controlled environment.
Interact with the engaging and entertaining UV Tactile Wall Panel
Suitable for Users in Wheelchairs
Due to the way this sensory interactive panel is mounted on the wall, it allows for excellent accessibility for individuals in wheelchairs. This allows for independent, individual play that helps to build a sense of self-sufficiency in the user.
What Are the Benefits of Therapeutic Sensory Play?
We understand the world through our senses, and if you have a hard time processing information from your senses due to hypersensitivity or hyposensitivity it can be very hard to develop intellectually. Using therapeutic play tools such as the Sensory UV Tactile Panel is a great way to help children with sensory processing disorders navigate the world around them by providing an easily controlled source of sensory input.
Promotes Cooperative Socialisation
Sensory play can be a great activity for children who find socialising difficult because it introduces a shared activity to focus on, taking the attention away from the pure socialisation aspect of communal interaction. This can improve communication, language skills, conflict management skills and cooperation through cooperative play.
Sensory and Emotional Regulation
Sensory rooms can help in teaching children with autism and other behavioural challenges to regulate their bodies in a way that allows them to function in the outside world. By improving information processing, sensory dark rooms can increase an individual's ability to learn, regulate their mood and improve how they interact with teachers and peers.
Assists with Visual Assessments
By providing a relaxing, calming environment where sensory input is easy to control, sensory dark rooms and visual tools such as the UV Wall Panel create the perfect environment for occupational therapists to provide visual assessments or even psychological assessments. The combination of glow-in-the-dark toys and dark rooms can make the experience of assessments less stressful and more fun.
Installation Information
The Sensory UV Tactile Panel is provided with wall-mounting brackets that will allow you to affix the panel to the vast majority of walls.
