WHAT IS ”VOCAFLEX® COLOUR”:  

 

VocaFlex® Colour 

can record and play speech messages for users with language and 

speech disabilities. 

VocaFlex® Colour 

is a simple, small portable communication aid 

with large speech capacity. It is a device that can extend the communication possibilities 
for many people who are speech-disabled by using pre-recorded speech messages, 
which can be categorized by “situations” or “themes”. 
 
Many communication aids require daily use and a lot of energy to understand and 
remember all the different functions and possibilities. During the development of the 

VocaFlex® Colour

, Abilia AS has focused on simplicity for the user, as this will often be 

decisive for whether the user will get optimal support and help from the communication 
aid. For some users it will be preferable to be able to change overlays without help. 

VocaFlex® Colour 

is an advanced communication aid, but it is also easy to use. Even 

users with reduced cognitive and motor skills can change SmartGuides and administer 

VocaFlex® Colour 

on their own. 

 
Just like with other communication aids, the user may activate the recorded speech by 
pressing keys, which contain recorded speech. You can mark the keys with images, 
words, graphical signs, letters, symbols and pictures to make it easy for the user to press 
the correct key in order to activate the desired speech message.
