high quality speech with a lifelike voice.
Plustek's BookReader integrates high-speed
scanning, natural voice synthesis (for read back) and highly accurate
text-to-speech and optical character recognition (OCR) functionality, all in one
device. Additional features, especially designed for the vision impaired,
include: magnifying functions, font controls, volume controls, speech controls,
bookmark functions, PDF reading, etc. All of them combined make BookReader a
highly versatile computer companion.
The BookReader comes with OCR and text-to-speech
(TTS) software. Both of them allow the scanner to copy and read the documents
scanned.
To use these features, the user simply places a
book or document on the scanning platen and, with the touch of one button, the
book is scanned for one's reading pleasure. With a single touch, the Book Reader
transforms printed words into audio output which can be saved in MP3 format for
archiving and later access.
Embedded OCR guarantees accurate scan results and
allows the software to rotate disoriented text to generate a clearer message for
the user. The unit comes with Plustek patented SEE Technology which uses a
curved lamp to provide a clear scan of the book without distortion along the
spine of big, bulky books. |
