The camera looks promissing but it is not available for countries like
India at the moment. I wrote to these guys and learnt that right now
they are only focussing on some of the major English Countries, and
for others it will take time for them to launch this product as it
requires lot of data collection and various other things. And they do
not have a big team or great resources. They also don't have any
distributor here so that we can go and at least see the product
physically.

Hi all,

You will still need to point the camera at what you want to read. As far as
I know, this device is usable if you have some vision. In addition, how do
you determine light levels?

They mention sine posts. Have they tried sine posts in India? What about
font differences? How do you locate road signs in the first place?

Guys check this out and let me know what you think. There is a video on the 
page that demonstrates what this product does. Sounds too good to be true but 
it is out there.
