Hi everyone,
I saw this app advertised on sale. I haven't tried it so I can't
comment on how it compares to others, but it's 99c, which is about as
cheap as it's likely to get. It's called "Voice Cam for Blind":
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.prod.voice.cam
From the description on the Play Store:
"*** ONLY TODAY SPECIAL PRICE ***
Voice Cam App for Blind reads in realtime English words detected by the camera.
App has a Voice Guidance useful to know position of text relative to
camera;you can enable e disable Voice Guidance with relative button.
There is button to know number of words detected and an other to know
number of rows detected.
Good lighting it's very important to detect text.
The objective of Voice Cam is to give an idea of the text that is
identified and can be therefore especially useful to Blind and
Visually Impaired.
The app doesn't need internet connection.
The App needs a TTS Engine that normally is already installed on device.
More info at http://www.mobileappsfordisabled.com/voice-cam";
It may or may not be useful for anyone. Either way, let us know if
you try it and what you think.
Regards
Quentin.
