Communicate with Symbols

The Grid 3 software transforms a Windows computer or tablet into a high-tech communication aid.
Text and symbols become speech in a variety of the best quality voices you can customize or record your own speech and sounds.

Whether a communicator uses symbols or text there are applications and grid sets that will support you across environments, from school to home to the workplace.

Using the Symbol Chat function, the user can communicate by leveraging pre-made grids, which they can customize as they choose, containing symbols that can be "˜spoken' aloud when clicked on. This allows the user to have a voice, through selecting the symbol/s that illustrate the word or phrase that they would like to communicate. This can then be developed to build up sentences, allowing the user to have access to a form of more complex verbal communication.

The Grid 3 supports varying levels of symbol use, from simple to more complex, for varying levels of user communication. The user can even choose to link together several grids to provide a larger vocabulary divided into topics (this is often referred to as "˜dynamic screen communication').

The Symbol Talker grid sets provide a pathway of learning that takes you from early AAC right through to literacy. Resources begin with topic based vocabulary where words are organised for easy sentence building and navigation.

More advanced grid sets are built on the core vocabulary we use most in everyday conversation. You will also notice that there are more cells included in each grid œ introducing a larger vocabulary and more choices.

Smart Grammar

Clever tools in all of the grid sets empower you to say what you want more quickly and more accurately than ever before. The smart grammar feature changes verb cells in your grid intelligently as you write.

Quick Editing

Editing your grid sets is also quick and easy. Using the intuitive editing interface you can add new vocabulary, change symbols or create new grids with only a few clicks.

 

Editing grid sets is quick and easy

 

Communicate with Text 

Text communication in Grid 3 empowers literate users to communicate more quickly and more accurately than ever. Grid sets can go from simple typing grids to complex setups with stored messages and predictions. Write sentences by spelling words or selecting complete words, and then speak them aloud.

You can type using:

  • a physical keyboard (including adapted keyboards such as BigKeys)
  • a keyboard grid, displaying a keyboard on the screen
  • grids with complete words or phrases

Chat History 

With the chat history feature, you can choose for Grid 3 to remember everything you ever say, so you can say it again in an instant. There are over 5,000 messages pre-programmed and ready to speak aloud. These messages are presented based on how often you say something and where you are.

 

Chat history enables Grid 3 to remember everything you ever say

 

Location relevant phrase suggestions

What you say depends on who you are talking to and where you are. Grid 3 uses your location to suggest phrases, so you can quickly ask for coffee as soon as you enter the coffee shop.
