Jacksonville, OR, USA – May 19, 2015 – Global Caché, the leading independent manufacturer of IP, WiFi, and HTTP enabling connectivity products for the control and automation market, announced today they have entered into a strategic partnership with Dad In A Shed, makers of the newly launched Eye-R product for the control and automation of infrared devices either by touch, switch, or eye control.
Global Caché’s products connect almost any electrical device to a WiFi and/or IP network so it can be controlled, automated, and maintained by network-based software. The company offers other connectivity products and services, including IR learning and the award-winning Control Tower IR database, available in the cloud (www.globalcache.com/controltower).
Inspired by his own difficulty sourcing equipment and aids for a handicapped child, the founder of Dad In A Shed is focused upon making affordable, reliable, and easy to install products for the disability market. Dad In A Shed offers a lineup of products, including Eyetomation, a collaboration with The Eye Tribe and their Eye Tracker, which employs eye gaze automation, Eye Desktop which allow complete PC access via Eye Gaze mouse emulation and Eye-R for infrared device control. Eye-R can be used with any existing Windows 7 or later PC, or can be added to the Dad In A Shed Eye Gaze Bundle. “It’s a pleasure to partner with Dad In A Shed,” said Global Caché VP, Robin Ford. “I love that their founder was moved to create products by his desire to help his child. To be part of a control and automation solution made specifically for the physically challenged is especially rewarding and adds another dimension of gratification to the work we do. We look forward to a successful partnership supplying a meaningful and comprehensive product that enriches lives.”
“Our goal is to generate products that make life easier for disabled people,” said Steve Smith, Dad In A Shed CEO. “Global Caché products, especially the IR products along with the Control Tower IR database, made the Eye-R product much simpler and easy to develop.
