The Value Of Via Products

Launched in 2020 to be your iOS communication devices, Via® is the first fully PRC-Saltillo product line. It represents the pioneering mission and values of Prentke Romich Company and Saltillo Company. Via signals the forward motion of our company.

Trust the Familiarity of Via

Starting to use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) can feel scary or overwhelming. Using a mainstream device can help AAC feel more acceptable and welcoming to the community and the communicator. With Apple®’s built-in accessibility, the entire operating system is accessible to the user. AAC on iOS-based Via devices combines the best of Apple and PRC-Saltillo.

Here are some of our favorite iOS features available on Via devices:

• Many voice options including Apple’s new Personal Voice
• Assistive Touch
• App interface/integration
• Crisp image quality
• Familiar operating system
• One Apple ID Account for ease of transferring app licenses between devices
• Many options to transfer and backup vocabulary files
• Family Sharing: Connect up to six Apple IDs together to share apps freely between them

Respecting Your Unique Needs with Via

Individuals who use AAC have different access and communication needs and deserve options. Via devices come in three sizes.

• Large: For those who would use the headtracking access method, the 11-inch Via Pro screen may be most suitable for button activation
• Medium: Via Mini weighs less than two pounds making it portable (and durable!), but still big enough for vocabularies with more buttons to have the benefit of a Keyguard or TouchGuide
• Small: The compact Via Nano is valuable to communicators who admire sleek design and convenient carrying size

These are just a few examples. Connect with your local PRC-Saltillo consultant to discuss your needs and goals for AAC.

Integrity for Your Potential with Via

At PRC-Saltillo, matching you to the right AAC solution is about helping you reach your highest communication potential. It could be spontaneous and meaningful interaction, reading, writing, connection, community, independence, joy, and more.

The selection of iOS apps for Via devices are built with robust, research-based vocabularies:

• Dialogue® AAC
• LAMP Words for Life®
• TouchChat®
• Unity® AAC App

Thousands of word-based buttons with the ability to add more paired with keyboard buttons, phonics pages, and message banking make it possible to say anything with AAC! Via devices are also compatible with Realize Language™ an online service that helps you measure and maximize AAC use.
