From a person with ALS.  This question is a little out of my league…

>>While the AAC device does help when needed, it doesn’t help with the phone.   Voice Over IP technology allows digitized voices with IP phones.  There are numerous text to speech applications which I can use, but I have been unable to find one that allows VOIP communication.   

 

Is anyone with the ALSA aware of any such application?    I could see a real benefit if folks that have to use electronic devices could use them to talk on the phone to others, without having to use a speaker phone, which distorts voices already. <<<


Any input appreciated.
