What is Visual Cue?
Visual Cue is a specialized augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) software designed to help people with speech difficulties or language barriers convey messages more easily. It features a variety of symbol-based communication tools to meet different user needs.
The software uses Widgit symbols and images paired with text-to-speech technology, allowing users to tap images and symbols to construct sentences or convey ideas. As symbols are selected, the text-to-speech reads the sentence aloud. There are thousands of symbols available spanning different topics and vocabulary to aid communication.
Visual Cue also includes powerful customization features. Users can add their own images and record custom vocalizations for unique words. Different accessibility options like switch scanning and eye gaze are also available. Settings can be tailored for each individual user depending on their needs and abilities.
The software aims to empower those with communication challenges, such as those with autism, Down syndrome, aphasia, or learning disabilities. It can be used to communicate basic needs, engage in conversation, encourage language development, and more. Visual Cue provides independence and confidence for those who have difficulties communicating verbally.
