Examples include gestures, body language, and/or sign language. Aided Communication Systems: require the use of tools or equipment in addition to the user's body. Aided communication methods can range from paper and pencil to communication books or boards to devices that produce voice output (speech generating devices or SGDs) and/or written output.
