What is the ReadEasy+?

ReadEasy+ is an easy to use all-in-one portable device that reads to you.

ReadEasy+ will read practically any printed text out loud within seconds, in a clear human-sounding voice. Simply line up your document or book against the right hand edge of ReadEasy+'s case, press the "Capture" button and within a few seconds, your print material is being read out loud to you.

Who is the ReadEasy+ for?

ReadEasy+ is for anyone who needs quick, easy and accurate access to printed material.

ReadEasy+ has an intuitive and tactile design that makes it an ideal solution for people with all levels of vision from low vision to total blindness. The one-button operation of the ReadEasy+ makes it suitable for people of all ages whether you are 4 or 104!

ReadEasy+ could be the perfect reading system for you if:

• You find it difficult to read with a magnifying glass.
• You would like to be more independent and be able to read your own documents (mail, newspapers, bills, etc).
• You have a learning disability such as dyslexia and benefit from listening to text read to you out loud.
• You find reading with a video magnifier (CCTV) too difficult because you can't fit enough characters on the screen to read at your desired pace.
• You find the constant movement of text on a video magnifier's screen makes your eyes fatigued or gives you a nauseous feeling.
• You already have a reading machine but wish it was faster, more accurate and had more features, (available with additional feature packs).
• You have a degenerative eye condition and would like a system that is suitable both now and for the future.

What are ReadEasy+'s Benefits?

ReadEasy+ features many benefits over other scanner and digital capture reading machines including:

Ease of use: ReadEasy+ is so easy to use. A single button press is all it takes to start reading your document. The six tactile in built controls are all that are required to access ReadEasy+'s main features.

Accuracy: ReadEasy+ uses the latest camera and recognition technology to ensure it is as accurate as possible, even on complicated newspaper layouts or curved surfaces like cans of food.

Quality of speech: Using the latest natural sounding voices, together with a custom designed, integrated, 6 watt RMS stereo speaker system, there is no better sounding reading machine.

Speed: ReadEasy+ reads your document to you in just a few seconds (typically 5-6), which means less waiting and more reading!

Stylish and practical design: A stylish, all aluminium case together with a folding, retractable camera and integrated carry handle, ReadEasy+ fits anywhere in your home and can be easily transported when on the go.

Footprint: Occupying just 8.6 x 4.7 inches of table area, ReadEasy+ is extremely compact and 75 percent smaller than the previous versions.

Weight: ReadEasy+ is the world's lightest free standing reading machine at just 5.4 lbs, making it easy to take with you or pack away.

Versatility: Read almost any surface, flat or round. ReadEasy+'s camera allows it to capture deep into the spines of books without flattening them, as well as reading 3D objects like cans or prescription bottles.

Low Vision model: If you benefit from reading magnified text in high contrast then the ReadEasy+ LV is just for you. The ReadEasy+ LV offers additional features that benefit users with low vision including being able to output captured text to a monitor so you can see the text as it is read aloud.

Advanced Feature Packs available: The Optional Keypad Feature Pack (for the ReadEasy+) and the Touch Screen Feature Pack (for the ReadEasy+ LV) greatly increases the capabilities of each device (e.g. saving, importing, exporting, bookmarking documents and large print text output to an interactive touch screen).
