Bespoke communication devices for kids with autism built with Django and Raspberry Pi
summary
Builds a functioning AAC speech device for a child with autism using raspberry pi 3, touchscreen, speakers and a battery, with source on GitHub and docs on Hackaday. Runs Django on Raspbian by using the development server as production, hooks touches to MP3s, and prototypes enclosures from Legos and stuffed toys. Notes that comparable commercial devices cost $6,000 commercial devices, audio out is too quiet and the UI currently works reliably only in Chrome.
