16. PECSPECS
A form of alternative and augmentative communication that uses
pictures instead of words to help children communicate. PECS was
designed especially for children with autism who have delays in speech
development
• PECS begins by teaching an individual to give a picture of a desired
item to a “communicative partner", who immediately honors the
exchange as a request.
• The system goes on to teach discrimination of pictures and how to
put them together in sentences.
• In the more advanced phases, individuals are taught to answer
questions and to comment.
•PECS has been successful with individuals of all ages demonstrating a
variety of communicative, cognitive and physical difficulties.
•Some learners using PECS also develop speech.

17. ConclusionConclusion
• Using speech technology on our application. With this technology,
we will provide multimodal web based application that enables input
spoken as well as traditional methods.
• With voice-enabled feature, we can help not only regular users to
replace tired typing using keyboard or mouse, but also enable people
with some disabilities like autism to easily connect and use the
website. So, we hope to make more natural interactive application
and reduce some of access obstacles.
•We implemented our project it using Microsoft Speech technologies,
.NET frame work, and integrating them with our projects to make a
beneficial application or tool for autistics (specially the Asperser
Syndrome).
