Product Information

The processor unit has an audio jack, a charging port, and three buttons: a Power button and Volume Up/Down rocker on one edge, and on the opposite edge the Trigger button, which the user can press to initiate a scan or hold down for two seconds with either of the Volume buttons to open the Settings menu.

One OrCam representative told me that this process is often completed when the user receives the available one-on-one training, which is free to anyone who purchases the unit.If my finger isn't pointing directly at the PowerPoint display it tells me, 'There's more text to the right. OrCam Read sets itself apart as the only portable, wireless, personal AI reading device that reads full pages of text in real time. With a quick tap, pointing gesture, or voice command, an advanced optical sensor captures an image and uses artificial intelligence to communicate information audibly. I know the battery life isn't great, but know that you can wear them while connected to a battery pack.

Simply ask for the text that interests you: “Read the headlines,” “Read amounts,” or “Start from” a specific section (like “desserts” in a menu). To learn a face, you hold down on the touch bar while the subject of interest turns their face slowly one direction, and then the other. Each time my wife's face came into view while I was evaluating OrCam, I heard my own voice say her name.However, it fills a massive gap in the market for a wide range of people and is such a clever and portable design.

Then you confirm the person by pressing on the trigger button again to complete the facial recognition entry process.

I often have to read him the daily newspaper and I know he would love to be able to get this information by himself. OrCam MyEye is suitable for all eye conditions and all levels of vision loss and people with reading fatigue and reading difficulties such as Dyslexia. Turning the device on was easy, with the product verbalising it was setting up, and in no time at all I was using the product to read any text I could get my hands on.All you have to do is aim the device at what you want it to read, press the trigger button which is a circle located on the top of the OrCam Read. Once in Setup mode, however, you move through various settings by swiping the touch bar to move from choice to choice, and tapping the touch bar to make a selection. Users have the option to read the text themselves or have the text read to them—all at their own pace. Since the camera is on the right side of your glasses, it is necessary to make some physical adjustments to ensure that the camera is pointing where you want it to.
