11/06/2009 - New Communications Software Developed

"How Was School Today", software developed by the Universities of Aberdeen and Dundee and Capability Scotland, uses a combination of technology to enable children with disabilities such as cerebral palsy and learning difficulties to have conversations in

The system uses data collected by a combination of sensors attached to a wheelchair to track movement and swipe cards used by teachers and carers that provide information about who the child has met and the activities they took part in. It then generates simple sentences that can be personalised by the child and read to parents at the end of the day.
