Naming practice on an open platform for people with aphasia

Published: 13 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

Banga is a software system that uses the Android open source software platform for mobile phones to support word finding practice, a form of therapy for people with aphasia. By connecting to a Web site, Banga provides for remote monitoring and management of the therapy, making it easier for patients to participate in treatment, and for clinicians to deliver it.
