Helping non-verbal people find their words

Dean Birkett

This project resulted in receiving a UX Talent award for 2018, as well as a visit from Tim Cook himself. AssistiveWare develops assistive technology software for iOS and Mac OS, creating applications for people with physical, vision, communication and reading impairments. Proloquo2Go is their flagship application, a symbol-based communication app for children and adults who cannot speak. As the UX lead for the project, we needed to introduce a powerful search function to help professionals, family members, and the communicators to find their words. I performed research, planned and facilitated the ideation workshops, designed, prototyped, and tested the solution through multiple iterations.
