AAC speech communicator Description

An Android application for people with speech disabilities, a generic and easy to learn communication method for anyone with speech disabilities that forms grammatically correct sentences from a list of pictograms clicked and reads them (text-to-speech). Because of pictograms it's especially good for children on ones who have limited reading abilities. It is different from most of existing products by being free, by it's grammatically correct natural language generation features (inflection, tenses, using the setting user gender to alter first person sentences1 and more) and by usage of gesture search on mobile phones where keyboard is not reliable because is small screen. Also, my friends have found it to be a fun toy to learn basics of foreign language :) The application includes ~5000 icons obtained from arasaac.org, where ~900 are properly categorized, and others are accessible through search. It supports French language well, and there is an early prototype for English too. Other features include: * recent phrases and pictogram history (each category lists most used ones on top) accessibility * for easier identification icons tagged with the 6 SPC colors (actions, names, descriptives etc) * option to display text in capital letters * compatibility with both Tablets and mobile phones DONATE TO HELP THIS IMPROVE: If you liked the application, you may donate to allow us add new features/improvements much more quickly: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=DY6954755BM48 INSTALATION: * install "gesture search" https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.gesturesearch * About Languages and Text-to-Speech: * to use French or English you have to set your phone/tablet language to the one you wish to use (go to your phone Settings) * you will also need text to speech engine to be installed (go to Settings->Install voice data etc) ---- For much higher quality voices you may get the SVOX voices from android market ( https://market.android.com/details?id=com.svox.classic ) for around 3 EUR (include free fully featured two week trial). Note: I'm not affiliated with them, just used and liked their quality. CONTENT LICENSE: The application includes (downloads them on first run) 5000+ ARASAAC pictograms limited to non-commercial use (Creative Commons) that must be redistributed under the same licence.
