OrCam Read 3 is an all-in-one solution for people with vision loss or reading fatigue. With this handheld device, you can easily read any printed or digital document aloud, or you can magnify text, pictures, handwriting, and mathematic formulas on your computer screen.
The Smart Magnifier uses AI assistance to retrieve information, summarise the text, and answer related questions about the text.
OrCam Read 3 is supplied with a reading stand, so you don't have to hold the device while reading for long periods.
OrCam Read 3 can easily read printed or digital text from any surface. With the Smart Reading feature you can quickly locate and jump to specific words or sections of interest in the text. These features work without a wi-fi connection, so can be used both at home or on-the-go.
It can also read handwriting from shopping lists, address books, birthday cards and more when connected to wi-fi (and the text is in English).
When used as a magnifier, OrCam Read 3 allows you to zoom in on captured images, read captured text aloud, and explore various options, including changing contrast.
The OrCam Read 3's Summarization feature uses AI technology to provide a concise summary of scanned text, from a few sentences to an entire page. This feature requires a wi-fi connection, and for the text to be in English.
Control the device with your voice, intuitive hand gestures, or the capture button.
