Tailored to your needs!
The ERICA System offers significant advantages over many other communication and computer access systems. If you have a degenerative disease, such as ALS, then with our touchscreen system, switch inputs, and head and eye control technologies the ERICA system can follow you through all the stages of your disease, ensuring you will still communicate and have access to a computer.Portable
ERICA includes a portable tablet PC with a camera mounted to the base of the system. Our compact, lightweight design can be easily mounted to a wheelchair and with our extended life battery the system can operate for at least 8 hours before it needs to be recharged. It also includes a wireless networking card. With our wireless environmental control software, you can easily communicate, control your environment, and control your computer without being constrained to one location.Cost Effective
Our system is priced far below those of most of our competitors. However, as Steve Nichols, an ERICA user with ALS puts it, Its not a get what you pay for scenario. [The ERICA System] meets or beats the competitions portable version in portability, performance, features, control and support.And Im qualified to say that I have a portable system from the competition as well. We have had great success getting third party funding for the ERICA system, especially for ALS patients. We can configure the device as what's called a Dedicated Communication System, and Medicare and/or private insurance typically picks up the majority of the base system's cost. Eye Response personnel are happy to help you see if you meet your insurance companys requirements for funding.Communicate with Life-like Voices
Our system employs the latest text-to-speech technologies, ensuring your new voice will be heard and understood. Customizable phrase boards and word prediction speed up the communication process. Symbolic communication is also offered.Compatible
Our tablet system uses Windows XP, so any software that operates in Windows, you can directly control with our system. For example, you may surf the Internet with Internet Explorer, compose e-mails with your preferred e-mail software, and play your favorite computer games, all in our one system. Wireless networking lets you maintain portability without sacrificing your connection to the world abroad. Our environmental controls allow you to control your appliances, such as lights, TV, stereo, DVD player, wirelessly as well.Robust and Customizable
