Ok, sounds fare enough, I'd think it would be along the same lines as trying to use a scanner, seeing as how you don't always know if you're placing a document face up, face down, or at what angle you even have it turned when you've put it on the scanner in the first place, so you just have to play around with it and hope for the best. I could be wrong though; I like the fact that they're coming out with these aps though, so we don't have to continue to have to invest loads of money into these secondary devices that we can only use for 1 perpose and have to lug all over the place in conjunction with our phone's if we want to live our every-day lives. ----- Original Message ----- From: Daniel Miller To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 5:27 PM Subject: RE: Looktel Money Reader For Macintosh (OSX)
That's not true at all. I use the app perfectly on both iOS and Mac OS X.

Personally I think it will next to impossible for a totally blind person to use the app under discussion here. If someone figures that out I would love to hear about that solution so I can share it with my friends at Apple.

Looktel has just released Money Reader for Mac! Here's the linkie and the press release. Enjoy! Cara :) --- Looktel Money Reader for Macintosh http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/looktel-money-reader/id477052345?ls=1&mt=12 NantWorks and IPPLEX have released their revolutionary LookTel Money Reader, app for Mac computers on the Apple Mac App Store. The cutting-edge iPhone application that has helped thousands of users with visual impairments or blindness identify and count bills is now available for Mac OS computers. By simply holding a bill in front of your Mac's camera, the application recognizes and speaks the denomination in real-time. LookTel Money Reader for Mac supports several international currencies including the Euro, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, and Australian Dollar. The app also features VoiceOver integration with support for several languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian, German, Polish, Russian, Korean, Finnish, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Japanese and more. If your Mac's language setting is set to any of the supported languages, LookTel Money Reader will speak the denomination of a recognized bill in that language, regardless of the currency type. Powered by LookTel's patented and proprietary object recognition technology, the application can seamlessly recognize any bill denomination without the need to take a photo as recognition happens in real-time. LookTel Money Reader for Mac is the first currency identifier available for Apple computers. The app is great for users to count and organize their bills in the comfort of their home, or users who do not own an iPhone. LookTel Money Reader for Mac also gives users the option to use the app on their preferred platform. LookTel Money Reader for iPhone launched in March to overwhelming praise from critics and users alike, earning a 5-star review average and a featured spot in the Apple App Store's "What's Hot" Category. LookTel has also been featured by the New York Times, The Huffington Post, Tech Crunch, Engadget, and several other major publications. LookTel has also been selected as the winner of the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Chairman's Awards for Advancements in Accessibility. The award, which recognizes outstanding efforts to advance communications accessibility for people with disabilities, was awarded in Washington D.C. on October 28th 2011. Future LookTel apps will further leverage IPPLEX's groundbreaking augmented reality technology, allowing users to recognize other everyday objects such as packaged goods, CDs, medication bottles, and even landmarks. The technology also combines precision image recognition technology with text reader capabilities using full featured Optical Character Recognition (OCR). The LookTel technology powering the application was developed by IPPLEX under sponsorship from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and was awarded two research grants from the National Eye Institute (NEI) and the National Institute of Aging (NIA).
