Why we know this works!

We love this smart reader because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we see how exhausting it becomes to fight through every page visually, even with a good magnifier. Is there a device that just reads print out loud? Yes: point the OrCam Read at a page, click, and it takes a snapshot and reads the text aloud. Voice commands like read the headlines or read the nutrition facts pull out only the part you want, and it works without internet, apps, or a smartphone. It is especially freeing for people with significant vision loss, dyslexia, or heavy reading fatigue who face long texts like novels, textbooks, mail, and menus. If you also want face recognition and all day hands free wear, look at the OrCam MyEye that clips onto your glasses instead.
