Voxello Receives FDA Clearance for Noddle Speech-Generation Device
From: Speech Technology Magazine - 02/21/2017

The FDA says the Voxello noddle device can be used in hospital settings to
help disabled patients communicate.

Voxello, a developer of communication solutions for impaired hospitalized
patients, today announced the US Food and Drug Administration has given it
510(k) clearance of the noddle, a device that detects voluntary gestures in
hospitalized patients and turns them into spoken words.

The noddle allows patients who cannot communicate traditionally due to
limited motor capabilities to control up to three devices with a single
touch. With just a tongue click, for example, a patient can call a nurse and
communicate with a speech generating-device. Phase I and II clinical trials
were conducted and confirmed that the noddle positively impacted patient
satisfaction with statistical significance.
