Windbag 3

KEYSTAGE: 2-Adults

AGE RANGE: 7-Adult

Windbag is a text based communication aid program for people with literacy skills. It provides many ways to store and retrieve messages. It has two main screens - the chat box and the phrase bank.
The chat box allows you to:
- Speak as you type
- Use abbreviations and the predictive typing to speed up your entry
- Smart context based message store
- Keep commonly used messages near the top of the list
- Speak from the clipboard
- Use recorded or synthetic messages
- Works with most text to speech systems for Windows
- Use Windbag to read back text created in other programs

The phrase bank allows thousands of messages to be stored if necessary, and provides an easy method to speak out the most commonly used messages very quickly. In theory, any one of your 3000 favourite messages can be selected in just three keystrokes. Messages may be in synthetic or digitised speech. A smart message minder keeps the messages you use most frequently near the top of the list. You can also use Windbag to read back text created in other programs.
For users who cannot use the keyboard, Windbag is compatible with all alternative access methods. For switch users Windbag can be efficiently controlled with an on-screen keyboard such as The Grid.

This product is Vista and Windows 7 compatible
