PRC-Saltillo Launches Genesis: A New Era for AAC Communication Devices
PRC-Saltillo's Game-Changing Launch of Genesis Communication Devices
In an inspiring move for the augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) community, PRC-Saltillo, a leader in AAC technology, has unveiled its groundbreaking Genesis product line. This new series promises to revolutionize communication for individuals with complex needs, such as those affected by ALS and cerebral palsy.
The Genesis Lineup: Enhanced Communication Solutions
The Genesis range introduces two innovative devices: the Genesis 13 and Genesis 16, boasting 13-inch and 16-inch screens respectively. These devices are backed by six decades of engineering and clinical expertise, emphasizing flexibility and thoughtful design—key elements that ensure users can communicate effectively across diverse environments.
Sarah Wilds, CEO of PRC-Saltillo, emphasized, "Innovation is meaningful when it helps people connect more fully with the world around them. Genesis brings together thoughtful design, durability, and personalization to open new possibilities for communicators across the global AAC community."
Features Designed for Real-World Needs
Both the Genesis 13 and 16 models are crafted with practical features catering to everyday communication requirements. Users can look forward to expansive screens, a convenient partner display, customizable access controls, high-quality audio from dual speakers, and a multi-angle kickstand. Further enhancing usability, the devices include larger power and volume buttons, impressive battery life, and substantial storage capabilities.
Tailoring Communication to Individual Needs
The Genesis devices stand out for their potential for personalization. Each user can configure their device according to their unique body types, access preferences, and routines, making communication as intuitive as possible. Available options include advanced eye trackers for better outdoor performance, head trackers, and various connectivity switches. Additionally, users may select from ten different frame colors and customize their devices with durable mounts that suit their lifestyle.
Retaining Familiarity While Embracing Innovation
Transitioning to a new AAC device can often be daunting, but Genesis is designed to ease this change. The devices incorporate many features that long-time PRC-Saltillo clients are already familiar with, such as proven vocabulary systems—Unity®, LAMP Words for Life®, Essence®, and more. This consistency, coupled with a Windows-based platform and established software like Empower® and NuVoice®, facilitates a seamless experience for users.
PRC-Saltillo's commitment to support is encapsulated in their High Five Warranty, which offers five years of coverage, ensuring that users can maintain effective communication with continual support.
A Global Celebration of New Possibilities
To mark the launch of Genesis, PRC-Saltillo is embarking on a worldwide New Possibilities Tour. This initiative aims to allow communicators, their families, and professionals the chance to explore the Genesis range in person and understand what these groundbreaking devices can accomplish.
