We are proud to present our communication software Mind Express 5. You’re probably wondering what has changed compared to Mind Express 4? Mind Express 5 has been through a profound change. The power of Mind Express 4 has been combined with an intuitive design. Its focus is on user-friendliness. The biggest changes are the renewed interface of Mind Express and the ready-to-use page sets and templates.
Everything starts with the user: you create your profile, choose the voice that suits you best and with which page sets you want to start. This will take you to your portal, your home base, where you can easily browse between your files. As a therapist, you can also easily switch between different users.
The new interface is intuitive with a central place for quick editing. Everything has been streamlined to make editing and personalising your communication board as smooth as possible. For example, you can now search in the same dialog box in symbols, take a picture, import from your disk or Google. There is no longer a central media library, but one media library per document. As a result, your photos will automatically be well organised and you won’t backup unused images when exporting pagesets. Editing becomes much easier thanks to an inuutive touch screen friendly interface. Visualisations are used where possible and extra explanations are shown where necessary. Still can’t find it? Search the software using the built-in search bar or google your question in our interactive manual.
You can now easily customise and use Mind Express through a touch screen. Want to type something? No need to connect a keyboard, just use your on-screen keyboard.
Want to use switch(es), joystick, mouse/trackball, head or eye tracking? In the menu, you can quickly switch between the different access methods. You can now easily assign scan groups and different dwell times within you pageset.
Mind Express is more than ever a total package. Our extensive vocabularies Amego, SCORE, PODD and AlphaCore are also available in the latest version of Mind Express. However, you also have access to a lot of ready-to-use page sets. When you create your profile, you can see which files you want to start with. These include many templates such as email, SMS, video, photo album, music, calendar, contacts, calculator, Windows control, etc. Do you want to start with only a few page sets? Sure! You can always import the page sets or other files from the Mind Express website later on.
The modifications to the interface, the new ready-to-use pagesets and a prominent place for alternative controls are some of the biggest interventions. We will gladly list the other differences for you here.
We have made tutorials to help you on your way whilst discovering the new interface. Need any help? Please don’t hesitate to contact us.
