ABSTRACT:
A completely self-contained, battery operated, portable voice system for the verbally handicapped which is sufficiently compact to be hand held. The system contains a preestablished vocabulary of words, phonemes, and phrases which are accessible by the non-verbal via a keyboard. The desired message is then phonetically spoken by a speech synthesizer contained in the unit upon the depression of a TALK key. For verbally handicapped persons with minimal motor capabilities, the present invention is adapted to be operable in a scrolling scanning or "scrolling" mode wherein the numerical display is automatically rotated in sequence and the selections entered by activating a sensor switch with a single body function to stop the display at the desired number.
