"Path Input is a quick, smart and fun input solution on iPhone and iPod touch. Its distinctive features are as followed: ★★★★ Path Input Keyboard ★★★★ Input a word by drawing its path on the keyboard. For example, to input the word "book", you can touch down your finger at key 'B', move to key 'O', then to key 'K' and lift up your finger. This input mode can tolerate the error. In the above case, if you lift up your finger at key 'L', you can also get the word "book" since "bol", "bool" or "boll" is not meaningful or common English word."

"Background: As a result of a variety of disabilities, some people are unable to speak using their bodies alone. Some of these people use voice enabled augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices sometimes called VOCA's. These consist of some form of input interface and generate synthetic speech. The user's choice of voices is very limited, usually constrained to selecting one of a small set of installed 'voices'. The result is that when a number of users get together it can be difficult to know who is speaking at any one time particularly if there are a number of people using the same voice."

"The use of Participatory Action Research (PAR) during the project ensures that TATE SIP is informed by stakeholder input throughout the development and evaluation phases. Outcome measures will include evaluation of device use (device skill acquisition), device usability (skills used in targeted environments), functional performance (activities of daily living affected by device use), quality of life (subjective well-being) and social participation (community integration). To ensure the TATE SIP reaches its intended audiences-survivors of TBI and the individuals who will train them to use ATC-we are working with a national group of researchers, practitioners, consumers, and advocacy organizations to support recruitment and dissemination activities.

" I tested three different voice-input keyboards: Jelly Bean's default (Google voice typing), Swype, and TouchPal. Each of these keyboards offers voice recognition which you can use to dictate emails, text messages, notes, and anything else you can think of. The feature is very easy to use in all these apps - simply tap the voice icon and start talking."

Sue Center is a communication environment designed specifically for people who cannot use a keyboard or mouse. It could be described as an 'on-screen keyboard' but it is much more than that. With an ordinary computer, a special low-cost input device, and this free software you can:

"From Farrall's examples I made my own form to use in the future when following this process. This form should include all members input prior to determining the use of a particular AAC app and communication goals."

"What is LAMP? Language Acquisition through Motor Planning (LAMP) is a therapeutic approach based on neurological and motor learning principles. The goal is to give individuals who are nonverbal or have limited verbal abilities a method of independently and spontaneously expressing themselves in any setting. LAMP focuses on giving the individual independent access to vocabulary on voice output AAC devices that use consistent motor plans for accessing vocabulary. Teaching of the vocabulary happens across environments, with multisensory input to enhance meaning, with the child's interests and desires determining the vocabulary to be taught."

"The goal of the myEye project is to develop an eye-tracking software to allow people with severe motor disabilities to use gaze as an input device for interacting with a computer. myEye was thought to help people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (also called ALS or "Lou Gehrig's disease"), who have lost their voice, and may only be able to move their eyes. myEye will be a free eye-tracking software (but not open source) for eye control, so I don't want to create false expectations. This software hopes to be just one more alternative for people who can't afford a commercial eye-tracking system, but I can't guarantee it will work for everyone."

"The Dynamic Keyboard is an on-screen keyboard which allows you to type using your computer and an input device such as a joystick, trackball, mouse, single switch, among others."
