Check out the Assistive Technology Database. It  is active on the UWEX FYI AgrAbility site:  http://fyi.uwex.edu/assistivetech/ 

Some nice features of this version include a “gallery view” for pictures of the equipment, and search-ability by category or limitation (left hand column).  These quick search buttons allow you to click on a topic like “Fencing” or “Vision Loss” and find all the products that have been entered into the database that might help individuals looking for technologies to help them make farming  easier.  There are over 800 products currently listed in the database that have been recently checked for correct contact information.  This database is different than the UW Equipment Exchange site where farmers can exchange equipment directly.

To add new products to the Assistive Technology Database, send an email with information about the product to Bob Meyer at aaw@mailplus.wisc.edu
