Case Study: Noah achieves faster, more confident communication with Smartbox Grid and Grid Player

Noah speaks on TV with Smartbox Grid in real time

Noah, an individual with cerebral palsy and a passionate disability advocate, faced challenges with slow and limited communication methods using his existing assistive technology. Seeking a faster and more effective way to communicate, he reached out to his speech pathologist, who connected him with Smartbox's Australian partner, Zyteq, to explore eye gaze technology and the Grid software.

Smartbox, through its partner Zyteq, provided Noah with a trial and then a full implementation of a Grid Pad with a Lumin-i camera and Grid software. This eye gaze solution was a total game-changer, dramatically increasing his communication speed and allowing him to speak effectively even in bright sunlight. The results were profound, enabling Noah to confidently appear on national television, secure a role as an AAC and Technology Coordinator, and become a consultant advising major corporations on accessibility.
