Hi All

 

Does anyone have experience/advice on the best text-to-speech App for iOS, in terms of efficiency of text generation using multi-way switching access. We wish to integrate control into a wheelchair system being driven with a 3 switch head array. The output control maybe a Bluetooth module or a Housemate environmental controller via an output module (still to be decided). We tend to used Switch Control set up as; right=next, left=previous, back=select, back(long)=home. Predictable appears to be navigated more efficiently when using the iPad on-screen keyboard but this can create issues when toggling it and it’s quite inefficient in getting to phrases in any case. Any advice would be gratefully accepted.

 

Cheers

 

Jeremy
