Planning for initial meetings begins and the start of the project just happened to coincide with the RAatE conference (Recent Advances in Assistive Technology & Engineering) where Professor Annalu Waller presented a keynote on where she felt Augmentative and Alternate Communication (AAC) should be going in the coming years.   Her slides will soon be available but in the meantime here is a presentation she gave in January 2013 (PDF seen below) about her research department at the University of Dundee and the work the team are doing around AAC.
