About Assistive Context-Aware Toolkit

Assistive Context-Aware Toolkit (ACAT) is an open-source communication platform for people with restricted speech or typing capabilities. It provides keyboard simulation, word and sentence prediction, and speech synthesis. Together, these functions can help a user compose text with limited physical input and have that text spoken aloud. ACAT is designed as a configurable platform that can be extended with different user interfaces, sensing methods, and language-prediction capabilities. This makes it adaptable to different access needs rather than a single fixed input method. The project is developed in C# and runs on Windows 10 version 20H2 or later and Windows 11. The evidence describes ACAT as assistive communication software and identifies its main input and output supports. It does not detail required hardware, language availability, or the specific configuration options included with a given installation. Its open-source design allows further development of interfaces and sensing features.
