Hello Everyone - We are excited to launch first version of the Poorman's Reader, an android app which enables reading-illiterates understand written text. It automatically registers users without requiring any signup/login and provides a 2-click interface to let its users upload images of documents such as brochures, handbills, newspapers etc.
There is also an interface for the volunteer translators to view the uploaded image(s) and simultaneously record its audio translation(s). Each application user is notified as soon as the audio recording (for the submitted image) is available for listening. The app requires an internet connection; however, it has been tested to work responsively on a 2.5G(GPRS) connection. To learn more, please download the app from google playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pk.gov.pitb.poormansreader We look forward to hearing your valuable feedback. Best, Ibrahim
