Apple observes World Autism Awareness Day by focusing on assistive solutions

Apple is observing World Autism Awareness Day and Autism Acceptance Month by showing how assistive technology can be used to help autistic individuals communicate, interact and manage day to day tasks. The above video shows Dillan who has used technology like the iPad and apps like Proloquo2Go, that is a symbol-supported communication app that spans the range of beginner and advanced users. The video, titled " Dillan's Voice,' is a moving and clear example of how applied technology can be used to change people's lives and give them a new way to communicate.
