Case Study: Smartbox enhances AAC access and eye-gaze usability with Grid and Evo eye tracking

Smartbox helps Samuel test Evo eye tracker in a 16-year-old AAC user story

The customer, Smartbox, provides assistive technology solutions, including the Grid Pad and Grid software, for individuals like Samuel, a 16-year-old non-speaking user. His challenge was finding a robust and accessible augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) system that could integrate seamlessly into his daily life for education, communication, and personal interests.

Smartbox implemented its Grid software on a Grid Pad device, utilizing features like WordPower vocabulary, Super Core, and the Fix tool to empower Samuel. The solution provided Samuel with a clear voice, enabling him to communicate effectively, complete schoolwork, and pursue hobbies. As a result, Samuel became an engaged beta tester for Smartbox's new Evo eye tracker, providing invaluable feedback to help the vendor refine its technology for future users.
