We have combined two of your favourite learning tools, iPad and Eye Gaze, to create the most flexible AAC device yet! Skyle is the world’s first eye tracker for iPad Pro, and it’s perfect for people with complex access and communication needs.
You can now interact with your iPad Pro by using eye gaze with a variety of different iPad Apps, thereby increasing opportunities for access, communication, environmental control and overall independence.
Communication
Skyle is a brilliant new method of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). By using just your eyes, you can now access AAC Apps such Proloquo2Go, GoTalk NOW, and TouchChat, to express yourself. Furthermore, features like the Skyle’s anti-reflective coating, protective case with built-in mounting plate, and the lightweight design means that you have the flexibility to communicate wherever you go.
Environmental Control
Your Skyle can serve as your home hub by enabling you to control appliances in your home or school. By downloading an environmental control App, such as EnvirON, you can control a range of compatible appliances from your iPad. This can include infra-red products such as TVs and music systems, or mains-controlled lamps, fans, kitchen appliances or door and window openers.
Independence
Skyle goes beyond being just an AAC method because it opens up the power of the Apple App Store. You can choose from millions of iOS Apps which you now have the option of accessing independently using eye gaze. This means that users of Skyle will be able to communicate with friends and family using Social Media tools like Facebook and Twitter, messaging apps like WhatsApp, and make video calls using Apps such as FaceTime and Skype. Skyle also offers the opportunity to watch videos, surf the web, play games and so much more, just by using your eyes!
Skyle has the potential to revolutionise the way countless individuals interact with the world, by opening up new ways of communicating, and empowering them with increased independence.
