About the solution
“We discovered Sadie was autistic when she was two as she was not responding and interacting like you would expect at that age. It was a shock, but rather than feeling sorry for ourselves we decided we would do everything possible for Sadie,” he explained.
TippyTalk works by transferring images into text messages to allow non-verbal children to communicate more easily with their parents.
“It operates as three screens worked by touch buttons. On the first there is a picture of Emily and me. If Sadie wishes to communicate with either us, she touches one of our images on screen. On the second and third screen is a list of her desires, wants, needs and how she feels. For instance if she wants a particular food, she pushes a food image. Then on the third screen all her favourite foods come up”, the inventor explained.
Despite not being a cure, Rob assures the app has been helping Sadie feel less frustrated, improving her life.
Rob founded his company in 2015, and now the app is available for iOS and Android.
