Assistive technology can help people do things they otherwise wouldn't be able to do or simply do things more easily. It can be essential for people with disabilities, but it can also be important or helpful for people with temporary impairments or situational limitations.
Assistive technology is a wide category: it can include specialized and expensive equipment, but it also includes features that may be built in by default to devices or software you are already using.
