PictiTab is a communication tool for children with communication disorders.

The latest release is freely available here!

Instructions for use (user guide) are also available in the wiki.

Origin

PictiTab is a French project that is the result of a collaboration between:

• the Laboratoire d’Informatique Fondamentale of Marseille
• the Laboratoire sur le Langage, le Cerveau et la Cognition of Bron
• and the Saint-Jean de Dieu Lyon’s hospital

The software was designed initially for iPad.

Then for a Master’s degree project, a team of friends and I realized an Android version.

Support

I apologise for the draft OOP implementation and the poor English translation. I stop the development of the project for a while to focus on my professional work. So, any help is welcome!
