- This article presents the results of a survey of outcomes and insights obtained, and of research in progress, within the area of new technology in communication for people with speech and language disabilities. The purpose is to give an overview of what has been achieved in the telecommunication area for speech-impaired people. The systematic study of the use of telecommunication by people with disabilities is a relatively young field, and only limited studies have as yet been conducted. In this article the focus is on telecommunication for people with speech and language disabilities, specifically, remote communication, visual communication, graphics-based remote communication, and picture communication. Full participation in society and social life depends on an ability to be in contact with other people. Telecommunication can provide opportunities for participation and equality for all citizens. In the future, different telecommunication modes will be accessible to persons with disabilities, and telecommunication will be a natural part of daily living for all.
