Loquendo and TBoxapps.com have teamed up to provide PredictAble,
a new
assistive technology application for the iPad, aimed at anyone who
has
difficulty using his own voice to express himself. It comes with
nine male
and female Loquendo text-to-speech voices in US, UK, and
Australian English.
Users key in their messages and press "Speak". All
nine available voices can
be adjusted for speed and pitch according to
the user's needs, and they can
be made to read out messages by means of
several access methods to suit
people's physical abilities: multiple
keyboard layouts, touch-anywhere
screens, or switch access. Email also
can be sent directly from the app.
