The purpose of this project is to help children with disabilities to talk through special cards using available new information technologies. These kids are from ages 8 till 15. I collaborated with KVAC(Kauno Vaikų Abilitacijos Centras) and there met children who cant talk normally because of their physical condition, however their mental condition is quite evolved or even sterling for their age. These special cards are created by Norwegian doctors especially for this kind of disability and for people with such mental and physical condition. In KVAC children used them for very long time. These cards are made from paper and colored in black and white. Each of these cards represents emotion, feelings, things, occupations and many others real word objects. So my solution was to move these cards to computer and adapt them for better usage and also to make kind of chat where more than one person can be involved and naturally would help person with disabilities. Main advantages of this software is that it can be used over LAN or thru the Internet there is no difference, also new technologies like AJAX let the system perform faster(saving bandwidth) then other available technologies. Besides there is no complex installation process, system is ready to work immediately without requiring detailed customization. Also one of the main thing why I developed this system is because of lack of such type of software over Lithuania and even over the world.
