Abstract:
This article presents a study of the advantages of using the needs transmitter designed for children with cerebral palsy. One of the problems these children face due to their living conditions have to do with everyday communication. This paralysis affects different areas of cerebral cortex, from gestation stage until the first five years of their life preventing them from performing basic activities such as playing, eating, toileting, among others. This transmitter has been a system of disability support. Therefore, the implementation of an innovative wireless system makes communication processes faster as it is a technological tool based on the use of pictograms; visualization facilitates to know the desires of children with CP. It also helps develop motor skills and language, improving cognitive deficits as well as their self-esteem thus allowing inclusion in their daily chores.
