This paper tracks the success of a young woman who switched from using a manual head-based light pointing system to an electronic voice output communication aid. This was executed by combining a mouse emulating interface and dynamic display software. Commercial products mentioned include PCS Symbols (Mayer-Johnson), Talking Screen software (Words +), and Headmaster (Prentke Romich).
