Allora by Jabbla
Text-to-Speech: The Allora is an easy to use, keyboard based, text-to-speech generating device. Any message typed on the
Allora's display is read out clearly in a high quality natural sound male or female voice.
Digitized Sound: In addition to synthesized speech, the Allora can store and play digitized sounds. These digitized sounds
can be used to attract attention, animate a conversation, for playback of a human voice or as a WAV or MP3 player.
Individuals with a progressive motor neuron disease might record their voice while they can still verbalize and then have
the Allora use these recordings to speak with their voice when they can no longer verbalize.
Multiple Languages: The high quality synthesized voice (Realspeak) is available in different languages. The Allora can
change languages with a few keystrokes to accommodate multi-lingual settings. No additional hardware is needed.
Powerful Word Prediction: The Allora's advanced text-to-speech
capabilities are further enhanced by an intelligent word prediction system.
A character keyed in will generate a predicted list of words that begin
with that character. Word prediction can be further refined by the input
of additional characters. When a complete word has been typed or
inserted, the Allora predicts the next word using its knowledge of word
pairs. The Allora's word prediction can save about 50% of keystrokes,
which significantly speeds up communication.
Pre-programmed Messages: The Allora can recall pre-stored messages.
Commonly used phrases can be easily programmed under any key. The
Allora can store more than 100 messages to be read out with its high
quality voice.
Abbreviation Expansion: Use abbreviation expansion to display a whole
message with just a few keystrokes.
Scanning: The Allora has built-in scanning with no extra display required, so there is no extra weight to lug around. Just plug
in a standard switch, press the switch and scanning will begin automatically. The row-column alphabet also takes advantage
of word prediction.
Keyboard & Display: The Allora has a waterproof keyboard with normal sized keys and large, easy to read letters. The
tactile keys are easy to push, yet give the user physical feedback when typing. The LCD display consists of 2 lines with 40
characters each. The first line is used to write the message. The second line displays the word prediction list. The Scanning
keyboard appears on the right hand side of the display.
Environmental Control: The optional built-in infra-red remote control module (GEWA) allows you to control infra-red based
equipment. For example, the Allora can learn the infrared signals of a television to turn it on and off, change the channel,
or control the volume. The Allora can learn any commercial IR signal.
The Allora comes standard with a sturdy carry case, AC adapter, USB cable, and Allora Tools PC software.
