Many people in the AGOSCI community prefer to communicate with their natural speech, rather than using speech generating devices. For those with 'non-standard' speech, it can be difficult for unfamiliar communication partners to understand their message. Speech supports might include communication partners and AAC systems to supplement natural speech. More recently, voice to text technologies have also become more accessible as an assistive technology for 'revoicing' natural speech.
AGOSCI has partnered with Voiceitt to provide our members with an update on the Voiceitt spontaneous speech-to-text technologies.
This webinar is designed for health professionals. In this webinar, Rachel explains how individuals with 'non-standard' speech can use this communication tool as a support.
Following this webinar, attendees will be able to:
