The IC Social Communication Tool by Mikael Johansen is a new design that is geared towards senior citizens. Meant to be an easy but tech-savvy communication device, this tablet would let isolated seniors feel more connected.
The IC Social Communication Tool will automatically set up e-mail accounts and can be programmed to be voice activated. It's designed to remain stable even while shaky hands have a go at the touch screen. Contacts are automatically gathered from e-mail and networking sites, so Grandma will never call you the wrong name again.
