The Tobii C12 runs the award-winning communication program, The Grid 2, from Sensory Software or Tobii Communicator 4.
The high quality speech engine Acapela is included with the software, which provides a wide range of voices in many languages. Many voices are also available through other test-to-speech engines, including regional accents.
The Widget Literacy Symbol library is included with The Grid 2, while PCS, Makaton, SymbolStix and Bliss are also available.
The Grid 2 features a number of built in workspaces:
- Email
- SMS
- Fully accessible web browser
- Skype chat and phone calls
- Much more!
All the workspaces are included in the software and you can make your own in the editor. Each workspace is fully accessible with any input method and features much bigger targets than standard mainstream software. The workspaces are also available to symbol users.
For those who need the full power of mainstream software, The Grid 2 can be used to control standard Windows programs with the powerful on-screen keyboard and computer control features.
The Premium option offers communication and computer control access, the Standard version is for dedicated devices (and lacks email, text messaging and environmental control), and Communicator Light is an onscreen keyboard.
Tobii Communicator supports multiple access methods, including trackerball, joystick, touchscreen, head mouse, Tobii Eye Control and 1, 2 or 3 switch scanning.
A range of pre-made resources are available to use with Tobii Communicator 4 including the SONO series.
