EyeComTec - assisting technology for people with complex communication needs

We are EyeComTec (a division of LAZgroup SA) – a group of developers creating assistive software.

Our mission is to create efficient and readily-available solutions in the field of augmentative and alternative communication technologies.

EyeComTec software products are intended for mobility impairment sufferers, or those who are afflicted with serious motor loss.

All programs developed in our company allow people with significantly limited mobility to communicate (type texts) and control computers by using any available and retained physical activity:

We are dedicated to making all our technologies easily available to anyone who has a need. After analyzing the field of software and AAC-hardware for those who suffer from full or partial paralysis, we discovered two main problems:

That’s why our main goal is to eradicate this situation for those who need it most. At EyeComTec, we strive to make assistive software solutions affordable, immediate, and easily available for everyone.

The concept of EyeComTec is uniquely different compared to the majority of solutions available on the market today. All assistive communication technologies and other input interfaces developed by our company are 100% software. This guarantees that our products can be easily obtained from anywhere in the world, and can be safely used on any computer – even laptops.

We have developed a wide range of assistive technology software solutions, optimized so they can used on affordable low-end specification computers or netbooks with built-in web-cameras. This means all you need to get started with the software is a reliable device you feel comfortable using.

Software products from our company can be easily used by those with various physical limitations or diseases, such as:

EyeComTec is currently one of the leaders in the field of software development for the paralyzed and physically impaired. We never stop our active work in this field, and we always seek to improve and develop our innovative solutions. Our company brings assistive technologies to a completely new level of development, making them easily available and affordable for those who really need them.

Main advantages of our software

The most important feature of EyeComTec products is that they can be used by those with various levels of motor freedom. Depending on the physical state of the patient, different combinations of assistive programs can be used.

EyeComTec software can be used in various medical and rehabilitation centers, as well as at home. In the case of degenerative diseases when the condition of a patient becomes worse (e.g. ALS), the patient can use the virtual keyboard to communicate with others easily. With limited mobility, the patient will retain the most important thing in their life – the possibility to communicate and to be heard.

Our company understands the importance our technologies have on those with physical limitations, and to represent this we offer free software licenses for those who really need it (for more information, please check the “License agreement” section).
