A communication board designed for people who are using a hand held or head mounted laser pointer with core vocabulary.

AlphaCore Xtreme – XL is 24 x 36 inches (aprx. 61 x 92 cm). The readymade printed communication board is designed for speedy and efficient alternative and augmented communication (AAC) for literate users.

It is an easy to use, simple to learn, affordable and portable solution. This board can be just one component of a complete AAC system that may include a high tech communication aid such as a tablet, computer and/or eye gaze system. AlphaCore is a communication system made up of the most commonly used words in the English language (core vocabulary). Using core vocabulary can be much faster than spelling out words letter by letter. Words are colour coded and arranged in alphabetical order, making them easy to find.
AlphaCore was developed by Amy Romn, MS, CCC-SLP. AlphaCore Xtreme is for people who would benefit from a core vocabulary system for either for physical or visual reasons. This board is designed for people who are using a hand held or head mounted laser pointer.
