Individuals with impaired speech are often understood only by those familiar with their speech e.g. a care-giver or close family member. These impaired speakers are therefore highly dependent upon those familiar listeners for their spoken communication needs. These needs vary from basic expressions of hunger or thirst to much more advanced requirements like being understood at a work meeting. A significant subset of individuals with impaired speech also have reduced motor function which limits their mobility or dexterity. For this subset of individuals, the ability to communicate via the medium of speech is crucial. This paper describes a personalised speech communication application targeted towards English language speakers with impaired speech. This application enables the user to hold conversations with other humans, dictate text to a machine and participate in meetings via closed captioning.
