Developments in Speech Recognition Technology have led to apps which can learn to recognise a set of words or sounds spoken by an individual with dysarthria, and connect these with a clear spoken output, known as Voice Input Voice Output Communication Aids (VIVOCAS).
The INVITE study aims to find out more about who will benefit from this technology, how they will use it, and what support they need to use it.
This will help to ensure that the people who could benefit from this technology get the chance to try it, and get the support they need to use it.
