Page history last edited by Paula Walser 8 years, 10 months ago

Quick Talker Freestyle from Ablenet

 


 

The NEW QuickTalker Freestyle is a highly customizable iPad-based speech generating device (SGD) with the critical options necessary for speech-language pathologists to better meet the unique needs of their clients with communication disabilities. QuickTalker Freestyle provides greater customization by harnessing the power of the iPad, providing opportunity to prescribe nearly any augmentative and alternative communication app, and choose from a selection of protective cases.

Start by designing a custom QuickTalker Freestyle SGD for your client today!

 

STEP 1
Choose between an iPad Air 32GB or iPad mini 2nd Gen 32GB as the core of your dedicated communication device. An option to add cellular service to your iPad is available.

 

STEP 2
Choose the case that best fits the needs of the user. There are a variety of options that offer different levels of protection, integrated handle, detachable shoulder strap, tabletop kickstand, and mounting. If you don’t see the perfect case, just let us know and we’ll get it for you.

 

STEP 3
Choose the augmentative and alternative communication app that best fits the needs of the user. Apps provide a variety of language systems, symbol sets, and access methods. In the future if a new app is available or the user needs a different language system, upgrading the dedicated communication app is simple. If you don’t see the perfect app, just let us know and we’ll get it for you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, each QuickTalker Freestyle communication system comes with:

  • Wearable HiFi speaker with detachable carabiner and shoulder strap
