AAC Data Aggregation Exploration
As we develop the prototype, we are working to also see what data we can pull from Dustin’s Words that would give caregivers a better tool for introducing their child to a new teacher and physician. These professionals speak the data language fluently and can tell a lot about an individual from data. Like what therapies to prescribe for example or any behavioral issues that may be exhibited, for example.
Using Spark as our hardware and one of our software platforms for Dustin’s Words, we can easily push firmware updates through their cloud service. Another benefit would be the ability to use their proprietary application that would allow for easy at home Wi-Fi set up for the caregivers. We have been talking to and playing around with Freeboard.io for an analytics platform that, like mentioned above, caregivers can use to strengthen the bond between their family and the teachers and physicians while keeping them informed of what is going on in their loved ones life.
We are working with behavioral therapists and teachers to figure out which data points would best benefit all parities.
More to come and thanks again for following! If you would like to help in anyway, please email us at [email protected]. We would love to collaborate.
