Dear all,
Does anyone have information on Book Scanners for a blind (with very limited vision)
researcher?
Most of his data comes in book form because of the nature of the subject; he has just
discovered screen reading software makes his reading ten times faster and much easier and would
like to be able to import documents in Word or text format. We have looked on the Net and all
we found were huge, very expensive flat beds with what appear to be overhead cameras. A CCTV
system a flatbed book reader system was also suggestedand has been suggested but as he is
limited for space may not be ideal.
Also recommendations for good screen readers other than JAWS, which will work with Windows (NT
ot 2000) - he's using a free and not very good one at present.
Many thanks.
