iCommunicator promotes independent communication for persons who are deaf or hard-of-hearing and encourages increased literacy by “translating” English a number of ways.

By taking spoken or written words and presenting them to the user in a variety of different formats, iCommunicator provides rehabilitative benefits for a number of potential users:
