We recently published a chapter on CRISKids' technology:
Ben-Avie, M., Randall, R., Dunne, D., and Kelly, C. (2015). Improving students‘ academic learning by helping them access text. In Nava Silton (Ed.), Recent advances in assistive technologies to support children with developmental disorders (pp. 217-236). NY: IGI Global.
I suggest you the contact with Raimundo Macário Costa. His doctoral dissertation was about "UMA ESTRATÉGIA COMPUTACIONAL NA DETECÇÃO DA DISLEXIA". He has very interesting publications about this subject. You can contact him with LinkedIn or Facebook.

As a "dyslexia tutor" for me Dyslexia and technology are interrelated and can enable the dyslexic learner to use less energy (using tech to support memory/recall, reading , writing, panning and organisation) thus becoming more effective and efficient.
As tutor I embed technologies in all of my 1:1 dyslexia support sessions regularly including in my sessions modelling or scaffolding of software such as Mind mapping, speech-to-text software, text-to-speech software, screen overlay , and software/app called audionoteaker that enables speech to be recorded, colour coded, editing alongside images of lecture notes and you can add you own notes too.
In the UK higher education system students who have dyslexia are often given (via a grant called Disabled Students Allowances) a package that includes assistive technology. Usually this includes software such as: Text-to-Speech (that reads to you), software to assist in lectures / notetaking /planning (mind mapping or audio recording) and speech-to-text software (you speak and it types).
One of my papers on Researchgate- "Embedding .inclusive ... nursing curriculum..." used "dyslexia-friendly" teaching methods so that whole cohort (280+) was taught mind mapping and Text-to-Speech software as we believed the "assistive" technology traditionally used to support learners who have dysleixa was beneficial to all and should be accessible for all. It was also beneficial by making the software as well as the software training available to all in reducing the feelings of difference in learners who had dyslexia.
An important requirement of any technology used is that quality and ongoing training is paramount. This is one of the reasons I embed technology in "dyslexia" sessions but am also a Assisitive Technology trainer (training people how to use the technologies mentioned above) and know 1 or 2 sessions is not enough to ensure competency nor develop confidence. Re-visiting and regular exposure - overlearning - learning incrementally I believe is the best method of embedding technology especially for learners who have dyslexia.
All student sessions and assistive technology sessions are delivered via Skype. I also use Skype to deliver training to other dyslexia / disability / university tutors on how to incorporate technology into their teaching. This technology is very important for me too as I have dyspraxia (under the same neurodiverse umbrella as dyslexia) and use the technology mentioned in this answer all the time - I would be lost without it. I wrote a blog about technology and neurodiversity and how it impacts all aspects of my life called Assisitive Technology is just technology. I've included the link.
I've created a comprehensive overview on assistive technologies for dyslexia and related difficulties on: http://www.dyslexiaaction.org.uk/assistive-technologies
I also write a regular blog on this topic on http://www.dyslexiaaction.org.uk/tags/tech-thursday.
