Adjustable Reading Speed

Users can adjust the reading speed when using the speech function, allowing the audio output to be customized to their listening preference.

How the Compact 10 HD Speech Works

The Compact 10 HD Speech uses its camera to capture printed material and display it on the 10-inch HD touchscreen. Users can adjust magnification and contrast to make the material easier to view.

When speech is needed, the device can recognize printed text and convert it into spoken output. The fold-out camera makes it possible to position the device over a full page, while the portable design allows it to be used in different locations.

Compact 10 HD Speech for Everyday Activities

The fold-out camera arm provides flexibility beyond traditional reading. Users can position the camera to view items such as medicine packages and round cans, as well as photographs and other objects.

This makes the Compact 10 HD Speech a versatile low vision tool for activities around the home, workplace, stores, restaurants, and other environments.
