GoTalk Series <show description>

GoTalks are powerful, durable, and easy-to-use communication tools that give a voice to people who cannot communicate independently. Since the release of the initial GoTalk, the Pocket GoTalk in 1993, the entire GoTalk line has continued to expand and has reached over 50 countries all over the world.

All of the GoTalks have a similar design though they GoTalk’s styles vary by the message capacity as well as the size of the message keys. While the GoTalk 4+ provides four messages plus an additional two core messages for basic communication, the higher devices like the GoTalk 32+ meet more complex communication needs with 32 message keys plus three core vocabulary keys. All of the GoTalks, however, share similar operating procedures.

To get started, a helper (a teacher, parent or SLP) sets up the GoTalk by recording a message on each of the message keys. First, simply press the record button, then select the message key where you’d like to record, and talk (to record your message). When your message is complete, press any button to stop recording (it automatically stops recording after 10 seconds). Each time you press that button, the GoTalk plays that message (until it’s erased or rerecorded). The helper then creates a communication overlay to match the number and location of the message keys on the device.

Communication overlays slide between message locations and keyguards, usually with a combination of pictures and words. These pictures, images, symbols, and/or words help the communicator understand the message’s intent. The new GoTalk Design app lets you create overlays for all of your GoTalk AAC devices. GoTalk DESIGN also includes templates to create standalone communication boards or cards and personal planning documents like calendars, daily planners, and lists.

In addition to the GoTalk line, we offers a fully functional scanning device, the GoTalk Express 32, that is an ideal bridge between a low-tech and a dynamic display communication tool. Several exciting features have been added, such as LEDs for visual prompts, an option to add a 1½ second auditory cue to any message, and the remarkable ability to seamlessly play messages in sequence. The GoTalk Express 32 automatically comes with a free AC adapter and shoulder strap for easy transport.
