It is encouraging to think of the possibilities going forward. Jeff On Jul 16, 2017, at 8:50 AM, Larry Thacker Jr. <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Thanks. I was so blown away by the performance I didn’t explore further. I thought I’d try it on my mail and was just amazed by how quickly it read. I blew through the intro without paying much attention, so it didn’t occur to me there would be a mode for document scanning. I’ll have to play with it. There may not be a reason for me to bother with KNFB going forward.

It had me 18 years older then I really am and my wife 6 years older. I am listed as a 76 years young man with grey hair and a beard. I’m greying at the temples but, only 58 years young. It is still a good app, though. Just question its accuracy in facial recognition.

Below is pasted from the description in the Canada Store. Seeing AI is a free app that narrates the world around you. Designed for the blind and low vision community, this ongoing research project harnesses the power of AI to open up the visual world and describe nearby people, text, and objects. Optimized for use with VoiceOver, the app enables you to recognize: • Short Text - Speaks text as soon as it appears in front of the camera. • Documents - Provides audio guidance to capture a printed page, and recognizes the text, along with its original formatting. • Products - Scans barcodes, using audio beeps to guide you; hear the name, and package information when available. (works with iPhone 6 and later) • People - Saves people’s faces so you can recognize them, and get an estimate of their age, gender, and emotions. • Scenes (early preview) - Hear an overall description of the scene captured. • Images in other apps - Just tap “Share” and “Recognize with Seeing AI” to describe images from Mail, Photos, Twitter, and more. Seeing AI is built to help you achieve more by leveraging the power of the cloud and artificial intelligence. As the research progresses, more channels may be added. Visit <http://seeingai.com/> http://SeeingAI.com for more details and instructional videos. Available in the U.S., Canada, India, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore. Coming soon to more countries. Languages supported – English Supported on iPhone 5C, 5S and later; best performance with iPhone 6S and later models. Questions, feedback or feature requests? Email us at seeingai @ <http://microsoft.com/> microsoft.com. Later...

Being married to me has aged her by 6 years, according to the app. It had her age 6 years older then she really is. Well, it is good for a laugh. All joking aside, the app works for people shots and does recognize dogs as not people, I took a picture of our Husky X. I would recommend it, and have sent the YouTube link to people in Canada and New Zealand. -----Original Message----- From: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] [ <mailto:[email protected]> mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kawal Gucukoglu Sent: July 15, 2017 12:22 PM To: Mark Taylor < <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]>; Macvisionaries < <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]> Cc: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Seeing AI app from Microsoft <https://youtu.be/bqeQByqf_f8> https://youtu.be/bqeQByqf_f8 Sent from my iPhone -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
