Oklahoma ABLE Tech: Device Loan: Device Details for Large Print Playing Cards
Device Description
The Large Print Playing Cards are an assistive-technology deck designed to make card play easier to see and handle by combining large, high-visibility indices with a narrower bridge size that many individuals find easier to hold; the oversized print helps with low vision and the smooth plastic-coated finish supports easier shuffling and separation for individuals with arthritis or limited hand dexterity. Individuals with macular degeneration, contrast sensitivity differences, or hand fatigue who want clear symbols at typical tabletop distances may benefit from the larger characters and bright, bold suit icons, while retaining familiar gameplay and standard formatting for inclusive use in homes, recreation programs, and therapy settings. Each bridge-size card measures three and one half inches high by two and one quarter inches wide, the numbers and letters are approximately one and one quarter inches tall, and the suit symbols are approximately one inch to one and one eighth inches tall depending on the suit; the deck includes fifty-two cards plus two jokers, features the Bicycle Rider back in red or blue, and uses a plastic-coated paper stock with an Air-Cushion style finish for smoother handling.
