Mind Express

Symbols

An extensive range of symbols and icons are available for use in Mind Express. They can be used to create communication grids and games and can also be supplemented with your own drawings, photos or new symbols. The symbols available include Rebus, PCS and Picture This. 

Mind Express is very easy to adapt and update, so that communication grids can be kept up to date with any changes or progression each individual makes.

Speech

Mind Express allows people to form words and sentences by selecting pictures and symbols. A clear, high quality speech engine is available (RealSpeak™) allowing text to be read out in an audible natural voice. Mind Express also has a built in grammar module, which guarantees automatic conjugations of verbs.

 Accessibility

The symbols in Mind Express can be accessed via touch screen, mouse, trackball, joystick or switches. This allows for individual and customized access to communication grids. Motivation can be aided by rewards such as sound clips, music or videos that can be played at the press of a symbol. Versatile

Mind Express™ is an open and multi-faceted toolbox for dozens of applications, making it an ideal tool for the assessment of the most suitable symbols, vocabularies and operating possibilities for individuals.

Grids and exercises can also be used at home and in the classroom, allowing full integration and communication with family, friends and colleagues.

As Mind Express works in a Windows environment, photos, drawings, videos and your own messages or recorded sounds can be used as part of everyday communication.

It also has a built-in word processor, which allows letters or articles to be saved, printed or read aloud.
