AI Magnifying Reader

January 12, 2024

 

 

There are many exciting technologies available now and on the horizon that can empower people who are blind or have low vision to live more independent and fulfilling lives. We have featured Orcam devices in the past, and now they have developed something new. Developing technology for the disabled is not just about helping individuals today; it's about building a more inclusive future for everyone. By ensuring everyone has access to the tools they need to thrive, we create a stronger, more equitable society.

The Orcam Read 3 is a small AI reading device to assist people with vision loss or reading fatigue. Whether you place it on its custom stand and in your hand, the Orcam Read 3 can magnify pictures and text that you can navigate using voice commands or hand gestures. It captures a full page for smart reading, offline operation, or connect it to your WiFi to view the magnified image on your computer.
