I’m autistic, and so is one of my nieces. Neither of us have any stutters, but she cannot speak save for a few words like names and such, and I have episodes where I am also not particularly capable of speech. Usually when I’m stressed out, the part of me that handles talking just shuts down. It’s called non-verbal autism.

God, that's awesome. I'm so happy for her. I'm really glad more schools are becoming accepting of accessibility devices for part-time use. Because I didn't need it literally 100% of the time, I was refused any kind of accommodations for my autism. But this is getting on for quite a while ago now.

@notanetcher I’m replying to OP. Schools allowing computers for accessibility reasons is important. I’m sorry you had a bad time but I also don’t care that much. Besides, if it came with it it wouldn’t have those kinds of driver issues, would it? Regardless, I didn’t even get the impression that was an “issued” device. I assumed she aged-into just using her own computer - that’s quite common aged 10-16 once you can just type into TTS.

Not saying that scummy stuff wasn’t going on but considering the types of mods, they probably chose Apple laptops as it was perhaps more about having a stable, reliable hardware platform to build upon. One vendor providing both the underlying hardware and software. With PCs they would need to depend on their chosen PC maker to make a particular piece of hardware fairly unchanged for long period of time and not be broken by changes made by Microsoft. Apple laptops tend to have generations where the chassis remains the same but the internals are updated. That is not as common in the PC world, especially in the time period. The classic Thinkpads were probably the closest to this.
@TommyCrosby
@TommyCrosby 6 ай бұрын
@BlakeHelms except that modification on the MacBook break any warranties and Apple won't help you in any way with the hardware, software, and the custom drivers. Don't forget that MacBooks don't come with Service Manuals and Replacement Parts numbers to order. Basically, the end user is now 100% reliant on the company that sold them the device. This is not a good spot. I would like to be as a specialty product seller because I now have to deal with all hardware support and be the middleman. Otherwise, you could take off-the-shelf laptops, make a battery of tests, and certify only a few models that you fully tested. Not only is it more economical and efficient, but you get a device that was built for the use you want, so you don't need that coat hanger stand and just put the device's screen closer without a "scary" keyboard for the users who use only the touchscreen. (Trust me, using a touchscreen as the only input device on a normal laptop is pure pain as you need to hold your hands forward on top of a surface you don't want to rest on)

The touchscreen absolutely not working is a question of relative vs absolute tracking. Game expect +x or +y pixels caught every x ms to move the view, the touchscreen inputs the coordinates of the click and at very high pace, so the game reacts WILDLY as the values changes are nuts to it.

The problem comes down to economies of scale. Are there companies that are taking advantage? Yeah, sure, but there are also a lot of these companies making this kind of niche accessibility equipment and software that got started specifically because they or someone they know had a problem that they wanted to help. I don't know anything about this company, specifically, but $5K for niche accwssibility software like this, unfortunately, sounds about par for the course. The reason the prices for this stuff that seems like it should be cheaper is because they can't benefit from cost reductions from mass production. For the hardware, theres the cost of the computer. Itself and all of the individual components, and then they have to be taken apart, modified, reassembled, setup, and tested individually, by hand. And even the software, itself, is not free to make. Software engineers and programmera, especially the ones who are doing tasks like possibly writing custom drivers for any custom hardware in this unit, are not cheap. It takes time to make the software and even if this company is literally one dude in his garage modsing and coding the software for these things, he needs to pay his mortgage and feed his family. And its obviously not a one-person operation, so what you're paying for in that price is for the time of at least one, but probably several programmers as well as all of the paper pushers and legal fees required in the USA to be able to make any sort or medical devices. Just calling something a "medical device" in the US means you must pay hundreds of thousands, if not _millions_ of dollars in order to be in compliance with federal regulations and pay for all the fees and costs that come with doing so. And the problem with something like this is that it's tech, which means that it's changing constantly and rapidly, so this company can't just write the software and then get it certified _once,_ but instead they have to patch and update it _constantly_ while also likely having to port and re-write it for new hardware platforms. I dont know how much you can modify software that is classified as a "medical device" before the regulations force you to get it recertified. I dont know if it has to be recertified for every specific piece of hardware it's designed to be run on, or if it's based on something like the percentage of new code added or modified before a recertification requirement gets triggered, or if it's just a rolling time-based recertification system that has to be renewed every so many months and years, but I am pretty sure that no matter how it specifically works in this instance and/ or how often they have to go through it, compliance is likely a _huge_ chunk of the cost of that software. If you want an example of this, look up how much a device that is specifically labelled, marketed, and officially recognized by rhe FDA as a "hearing aid" cost before 2022 (OTC hearing aids have only recently been made legal in the US), then look up how much "Personal Hearing Amplifiers" cost. The price difference is massice. An "unofficial" hearing aid is often _at least_ an entire digit lower in cost than an equivalent "officially-recognized" hearing aid. And it's for the same basic device: a small, in-ear audio amplifier. The difference? Certification and compliance costs. We've had free text-to-speech software available forever. And writing a visual basic application that is essentially just a really large sound board with pictographic buttons and touchscreen support wouldn't be _that_ hard. You do have to remember that you also need to pay for all the art on these buttons. It might just be basically clip art and/ or stock photos, but _someone_ has make those images, and that's either going to cost them time to make themselves, or money oto hure an artist or buy the stock images from _somewhere._ There's a lot of extra complexity added, though when it comes to also making sure that that the software is usable by people with different types of aphasia, different levels and types of motor and mental difficulties, The problem arises when you then have to make sure that you're not violeting one of the thousands of medical regulations, submit it for FDA screening and certification, and then also get into comiance with all the myriad insurance policies that you definitely want to be compliant with to get your software paid for and suddenly those costs go up quick. And the problem is that you dont then have millions upon millions of people you can then sell that software to to divide those costs and bring the prices down. You really only have a potential market of thousands, possibly tens, *_maybe_* hundreds of thousands of you can sell to, and many, if not most of them, will not buy your product. They'll either buy a competitor's product, use some other method of communication they feel is more suited to them, or just not use anything because they dont want to (in healthcare, getting people to actually use accessibility tools even when given to them is not uncommonly an uphill battle for all sorts of reasons ranging from hopelessness, stubbornness, mental capacity, physical ability, frustration, ego keeping them from admitting they have a problem, laziness, discomfort, embarassment, etc...). Or theyll just never even know about it. So your market is a slice of an already small niche you're not alone in, and then you have a big pile of red tape expences heaped on top of it, and pricing that is actually sustainable and wont just put you out of business starts ro balloon _very_ fast. The real problem here is pur broken medical system, insurance companies being bastards, and that our system makes trying to solve niche medical and accessibility problems prohibitively expensive. It stifles new ideas and keeps new solutions that could be helping people wildly expensive and chills innovation and fresh blood from getting into the market.

Going to preface this that what I'm about to say is nothing but conspiracy theory, just mostly based on what I hear about how the medical insurance industry is sometimes. I'm willing to bet part of the reason why a MacBook was used (aside from how Apple supports the software at least), is that it gives the company an excuse to buy not only an expensive product for the time, but also to modify it and jack up the price another 1000%, so that they can then make the claim to insurance companies that if they only support this product, they can get a huge "discount" from them for doing so. Kinda the reason why a box of bandaids is only a few bucks, but go to the hospital and a single bandaid will run you $80 right there. In the end, it's usually the consumer that hurts in the end when it comes to this stuff. I'm not doubting how useful this kind of tech is or anything. Just the predatory nature of the health insurance industry is just... well pretty scummy really.

@@TwinShadow_Fox - you're 100% correct. AAC tech is an incredibly predatory industry. they'll use any excuse they can just to bump the price up. even more modern AAC solutions - apps that you run on your phone or tablet - are inexplicably expensive, despite being incredibly clunky to use.

@afan64
@afan64 6 ай бұрын
Not Michael, but the short answer is most likely no. Windows 10 is x86 based but there isn't a single x86 based Android tablet. There are probably some but it would be advertised. In some rare cases, you might be able to install ARM onto it. May.
