The latest innovative technology for the blind and visually impaired, OrCam, is a device that can change everything for those with visual problems. Essentially, it’s a tiny high-tech camera that attaches to reading glasses. They are a pair of smart glasses for the visually impaired and for the blind that can revolutionize reading, and help blind and visually impaired, even those with reading disabilities, to re-gain their confidence and independence. All one has to do is point their finger towards anything that they want to “see”–be it text, a street sign, even the face of a loved one. And with that point of a finger, the device can “read” the text aloud in your ear within seconds. It’s truly cutting-edge technology. This device is life-changing, and this assistive technology for visually impaired people, as well as blind people, has the potential to dramatically change the lives of thousands.
