School DAF stuttering therapy treatment device.

School DAF

Simple, easy-to-use DAF device for treating childhood stuttering.

Speech-language pathologists, schools, and other institutions: please call for price. Not sold to individual consumers.

Altered Auditory Feedback Features

  • Delayed auditory feedback (DAF) immediately reduces stuttering about 70% at normal speaking rates without training, mental effort, or abnormal-sounding or abnormally slow speech. 55% carryover fluency after removing the device, without speech therapy. With speech therapy, DAF can induce a slower speaking rate with stretched vowels to make even severe stutterers nearly 100% fluent.

Anti-Background Noise Features

  • Noise-canceling directional microphone eliminates background noise at the source.
  • High-frequency filters remove background noise above the user's vocal range.
  • Dynamic expansion makes loud sounds (e.g., the user's voice) louder and quiet sounds (e.g., other people's voices) quieter.

Other Features

  • Second headphone jack for speech-language pathologist to plug in headphones to listen in. (Therapist's headphones not included, any standard headphones will work.)
  • Binaural (two ear) or monaural (one ear) sound. Binaural sound is 25% more effective than monaural sound and is recommended for severe stutterers; mild stutterers can get by with monaural sound.
  • 35-7500 Hz frequency range clearly reproduces all vocal frequencies of adults and children.
  • 9-volt battery last about 20 hours. AC adapter (included) doesn't charge the battery.
  • Removable belt clip.
  • Beige case.
  • Two 3.5mm jacks for any standard microphone and headphones.
  • One 2.5mm jack for any standard cellphone earset (except Nokia).
  • 4.5" x 2.7" x 0.9" (11.5 cm x 7 cm x 2 cm); about the size of an iPod.
  • 4.6 ounces (130 grams).

Included Accessories

Optional Accessories

  • Miniature earset. Kids like these for classroom oral presentations. Not for extended use in a noisy environment. Order monaural (one ear, $25) or binaural (two ears, $45).
