Many of you will be aware of the launch of the all new Allora in May this year and we have had a really good response from people who are very keen to explore how the communication device can enhance the quality of communication for it's users.
What makes the Allora so unique is that it has a partner display which allows the conversation partner to read what is being written by the user as well as listen to them. This technology is crucial for supporting that style of communication as it maintains eye contact between the partners whilst they converse with each other.
We have been asking many people how they think that this display could be used especially as it can be detached from the device and held by conversation partners of placed in strategic positions that enhance the communication.
In a recent competition our winner suggested a classroom application whereby the teacher could have the display placed in a strategic position at the front so that the user can make comments or ask questions without being lost in the sea of hands that would go up when a question is asked.
More recently, one of our customers who is living with motor neurone disease purchased an Allora and did so because it meant that she could sit with her husband watching TV together side by side. The husband has the detachable display on the arm of his chair where he can see it and this meant that his wife could make comments on what they were watching without him needing to reach round to check what the display was saying. This technology allowed them to be able to do something together in a more relaxing way.
If you can see other ways to use the detachable display then we would love to hear from you.
