Scan and Read Software: OpenBook

OpenBook software is a scan and read program that takes printed documents and turns them into electronic text so that it can be read back by a Naturally Speaking or Voice Synthesized program that is embedded into the program. OpenBook allows you to visually change the text via font style, size, color and spacing once the text is scanned into the computer. OpenBook can capture up to 20 pages per minute and has a motion detection device that prevents snapping a picture until a page is turned and is perfectly still.

This program helps students who are visually impaired or are legally blind to access printed documents in a school or work setting.
