They manufacture a variety of communication aids from traditional text to speech devices to touch screen hand held aids, all of which encourage face to face communication between someone with limited speech and their communication partners.

 

Allora

The Allora model by Jabbla UK is both keyboard and switch accessible and allows users to type out their messages, which are then displayed on a screen facing whoever they are talking to. As the input method for this device is a keyboard, it is designed for those who have limited speech but who are literate and the built-in speaker system is two way, meaning both the speaker and their conversation partner are able to hear what the user is inputting to the device.

 

Tellus

The tablet is also able to make phone calls and text messages, providing the user with even more ways to communicate with the worlds around them. The Tellus is eye gaze compatible making it ideal for those users who are speech impaired and also may have physical disabilities, as it can be controlled with eye movements. Alternatively, the Tellus devices are switch accessible with up to 2 switch capacity.

The Mobi is a talking technology device that allows users to control appliances in the home, send text messages and make phone calls via the internet.
