The pictures on the displays have been developed by Mayer-Johnson Inc. (Solana Beach, CA, USA) in collaboration with Speak Up. They are used here with permission.

We encourage you to download and use these free communication displays. Please program them into AAC devices and translate them into different languages and different representational sets (e.g., Blissymbols, Dynasyms etc.).
