About ASL

As an invention help studio, we welcome work from all sorts of different companies, start-ups, and inventors around the world. When we heard Tim was working with ASL, we were glad to be able to work with a laboratory whose goals focus on equal rights and the needs of others.

Adaptive Switch Laboratories is a design lab that works to specifically design products for those who are unable or can’t access the environment around them through conventional means. ASL’s products and designs are directly focused and result in helping the needs of those that they serve, and they always carry the important goal of achieving independence and equal rights for whom they work with and for whom they work.
