Product: Cicero Text Reader
Cicero
effectively takes your computer and scanner and turns them
into a reading machine for people with a visual impairment.
Printed text documents are placed on the scanner and can then
be translated into speech, Braille or simply held as a text
document which can be adjusted, saved, edited and printed out.
Whether at home or in the work environment, this means
that your privacy does not have to be compromised: you can
read letters however and whenever you choose without relying
on other people. Independence is maintained and working
practices remain unaffected.
Cicero starts talking
automatically as soon as the page scan is complete. It is
fast, accurate, and easy to use and includes context sensitive
help. Start and stop speech instantly with a key press, or
browse through a document using the cursor keys. Cicero comes
with full lifetime technical support by telephone or
email.
Large Print and Braille For those with
low vision, Cicero allows you to view your document on screen
in large print. You can also choose high contrast colors and
select your preferred font.
Cicero also supports
refreshable Braille displays, so that you can scan your
printed correspondence and read it directly in Braille.
Scanned text can also be exported directly to a Braille
translation program for the production of embossed Braille
documents.
