The OrCam is an intuitive portable OCR (Optical Character Recognition) device that mounts onto the frames of your eyeglasses. OrCam recognizes text, products and faces, and speaks to you through a mini earpiece. The OrCam device responds to a simple intuitive gesture – a point of your finger or the press of a single button. Whether it’s to read, find an item or recognize a product, it responds instantly.
The LightHouse will host an introduction to this new OCR device at the Ed Roberts Campus in September.
When: Tuesday, September 22 from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m.
Where: LightHouse at the Ed Roberts Campus, 3075 Adeline, Berkeley (above Ashby BART station)
Anat Nulman, the representative of the OrCam, will provide a hands-on demonstration of this new OCR device which supports reading through use of OCR technology and touch gestures. It is portable, wearable and ‘on demand.’
