David Master APP
The idea was born from the clinical experience of Dr. Davide de Martinis, a licensed psychologist, expert in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and specialized in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (CAA). David Master is based on approaches based on scientific evidence, with a strong focus on individual needs and educational, rehabilitative and family contexts.
David Master combines a speech synthesizer with an intuitive and highly customizable visual interface. Realistic images, organized into functional categories, represent objects, actions and emotions of everyday life, facilitating clear, immediate and meaningful communication. The inclusive design makes the app also usable by people with motor or cognitive difficulties, adapting to different functional needs.
In addition to improving interaction with family members, teachers, educators and healthcare professionals, David Master contributes to the development of fundamental skills such as self-regulation, social participation and emotional management, reducing frustration and dysfunctional behaviors.
It is available in two versions:
- Free basic version, designed to offer a simple but effective tool to all users.
- Premium version: designed for those looking for advanced customisation, it allows you to create tailor-made communication paths. After registering on www.centrostudilovaas.com, the account is unlocked and the interface can be customized from the back-office. The changes are updated on the app immediately and intuitively, simply by scrolling from your mobile phone or tablet. A fluid solution, designed to truly adapt to the person.
The initiative is promoted by the Lovaas Study Center, a non-profit organization active in applied research, training and the dissemination of evidence-based tools for inclusion. The Center stands out for its active role in clinical and psycho-educational innovation, supporting families, professionals and educational contexts.
David Master is not just an app: it is a bridge between the person and the world, between intention and word.
A concrete tool to make communication truly accessible to everyone.
"Give voice to your emotions, make your desires visible. With David Master, your thoughts take voice."
Dr. Davide de Martinis
