Logan ProxTalker AAC Device Package

The Logan ProxTalker communication device (choose from male or female voice) is an exciting mid-tech device that uses RFID technology to retrieve vocabulary stored on sound tags that produce real words. This system is ideal for any picture exchange system user of any age as a means of communication, or as a classroom tool. Just pick a tag, place it on a button, and press. The ProxTalker device will say the appropriate sound, word, or sentence. This communication device uses an inbuilt microphone, and the volume can easily be adjusted. The sound tag can store up to 8 seconds of recording and has 1GB of memory (30,000 sound tags/1,000 minutes). The Logan ProxTalker communication device is powered by four C batteries (minimum of 6 months of battery life in use).

The secret of the success of the ProxTalker communication device is in its ease and flexibility of use. It does what it says on the label: you pick a tag, place it on a button, and press it - it speaks! Customizing your tags can be done in two easy steps. Identify the symbol, image or cue to affix on the tag from the supplied ready cut sticker sheets for both large and small sized tags. Record what you want the tag to say, up to 8 seconds of sound on each tag. This can be a word, a sentence, lines from a play, or music. Use your imagination! Photos, tactile symbols, small objects of reference (like a bottle lid) and embossed symbols make for wonderful tags when combined with words that have meaning to the user.
