| Receptionist Mat–
Ideal for the visually impaired, this mat is used to signal the presence
of a visitor. Placed directly on the floor or under existing carpet, the
attached alert box will signal when a visitor "steps and remains
on" the mat for a few seconds. The alert box will not sound due to
passing traffic. This device is especially helpful in situations where
visitors do not immediately notify their presence. |
