Resumo: | The purpose of this article is to identify, catalog and describe the functionality of assistive technology resources, especially in products to support orientation and mobility of blind children aged 0-5 years, used to increase their sensor and motor development and to reduce or eliminate the possible limitations caused by the disability. The previous literature review has shown that there are few scientific studies and papers on assistive technology specific to this audience, at the studied age group, which makes this a study of unique relevance to both the field, and society. Initial results indicated that the products available as Assistive Technology should follow instructions and individualized criteria, considering the specific and individual needs, the context the blind child is inserted and the barriers that make harder to execute tasks. We emphasize that all products identified are physical, analogic, and can be handcrafted with minimum cost and high functionality, and that there is a lack of digital products specifically made for blind children in the studied age group, which shows the development stage of technology in this area and/or the little investment made to treat these subjects. |

A revisão bibliográfica prévia demonstrou que são escassos os estudos e trabalhos científicos sobre Tecnologia Assistiva específica para este público, na faixa etária estudada, o que torna este artigo de singular relevância tanto para a área, quanto socialmente. Os resultados iniciais indicaram que os produtos disponíveis como sendo Tecnologia Assistiva devem seguir preceitos e critérios individualizados considerando as necessidades específicas e individuais, o contexto que a criança cega está inserida e as barreiras que impedem ou dificultam a execução da tarefa pelo indivíduo. Destacamos que todos os produtos identificados são físicos, analógicos, podendo ser confeccionados de modo artesanal, com custos mínimos e alta funcionalidade, e que existe uma carência de produtos digitais específicos para as crianças cegas, na faixa etária estudada, o que evidencia o estágio em que se encontra o desenvolvimento tecnológico nessa área e/ou o pouco investimento feito para o atendimento desses sujeitos.
