HumanWare Allies with Intel® Corporation on Distribution of New
Intel® Reader Longueuil, QC, Canada and SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
November 10, 2009â HumanWare, the global leader in assistive
technologies for the print disabled, announced today a
distribution agreement with Intel for the Intel® Reader, a
mobile handheld device designed to increase independence for
people who have trouble reading standard print. The Intel Reader
, which is about the size of a paperback book, converts printed
text to digital text, and then reads it aloud to the user. Its
unique design combines a high-resolution camera with the power
of an Intel® Atom⢠processor, allowing users to point, shoot
and
listen to printed text.
When the Intel Reader is used together with the Intel® Portable
Capture Station, large amounts of text, such as a chapter or an
entire book, can be easily captured for reading later. Users
will have convenient and flexible access to a variety of printed
materials, helping to not only increase their freedom, but
improve their productivity and efficiency at school, work and
home.
"We are excited about the alliance between HumanWare and Intel
for the distribution of the Intel Reader, said Gilles Pepin, CEO
of HumanWare. "This new innovative reading system is a welcome
addition to our line of reading solutions as it addresses the
needs of print-disabled customers, allowing them to read printed
materials anytime, anywhere."
"For someone who has difficulty reading standard print, the
ability to quickly and easily access information, such as a job
offer letter or even the menu at a favourite restaurant, can
improve quality of life and help them reach their full potential
," said Louis Burns, vice president and general manager of
Intel's
Digital Health Group. "We are excited to work with HumanWare
to offer the Intel Reader as a new tool for people with
vision problems and learning disabilities."
