What is COMPIC?

Food for Thought | Animals Galore

COMPIC® pictographs are a communication resource developed in Australia by COMPIC®. It consists of a library of 1670 pictographs (computer drawn line drawings) which represent words, objects, activities and concepts. The pictographs are accompanied by the relevant word or phrase. The benefit and purpose for people using pictographs is to provide a visual representation of a word or concept

The vocabulary includes adjectives, verbs, nouns, questions, phrases, colours, numbers and quantities. The pictographs are designed according to international standards, they are clear, very iconic and suitable for children and adult applications and thus accepted by the community at large.
