Has anyone gotten Prizmo to work with an iPad? I have had horrible results with
Prismo where other apps like Goggles or Tap Tap See seem to work better. The
iPad Mini does not have a flash with its camera.

Hi Steve,
I think the iPad mini camera isn't quite good enough for a blind user to easily
use with Prizmo. If you use a StandScan Pro with a third or fourth generation
iPad (assuming that you have this set up with additional support for the iPad),
you can get OCR with Prizmo to work.
I doubt
You're right. Those other apps are fine for identifying food packages or such.
It sounds to me like one has to have an iPhone to really use these apps. I like
the iPad mini for its size and am probably not in the market for a big iPad. I
was under the original impression that the camera on the
Have any of you tried StandScan? I've heard it's pretty good. I'm thinking
about trying it myself.

Hello Nick,
I've been using the StandScan Pro for about three months now and would highly
recommend it.
My preferred OCR app for use with the StandScan Pro is TextGrabber + Translator
which can handle three different languages at once and produces even better
results than Prizmo.
I use both
Is it the same box that people were on about? The one you could get from Hong
Kong?

Hello Kawal,
There are two similar boxes to help with scanning using a smart phone. There's
StandScan Pro and ScanBox. The StandScan Pro is shipped from Hongkong and the
Scan Box comes from Australia. They both work on the same principle of
providing ideal lighting and positioning with no
Fantastic, thanks, Anne! You've given me the confidence and encouragement I
need to go out and order myself one. I think it's going to make a big
difference.
Have you had any luck using the StandScan with Talking Gogles or one of those
video-based apps which automatically read the results
If the boxes were made of plastic rather than what they are made of now i'd
get one.

Hello Nick,
I find that Talking Goggles doesn't really work for me with the StandScan Pro,
but it works great freehand in front of the kitchen window. It's in the kitchen
that I use it most to identify things like jars of pâté or pachaged cold meats.
Cheers,

Michael, the app we're discussing here is for iPhone and other IOS devices, not

Hi all,
Yesterday afternoon I was messing around with both these apps to try and figure
out if one is better. So far my results are inconclusive, I wasn't 100% happy
with either scan. I was just holding the phone in my hand, I was not using a
StandScan Pro or Scanbox. Just curious whether
Hi Anne.
I used goggles with standscan yesterday, there was some creams which I could
not find the barcodes on, nothing worked. At last I used standscan and talking
goggles, If you lift your item a little inside the standscan it works pretty
good. I would like, if the results where shown in
I had doing some experimentation with Prizmo, and had mixed results. My husband
got me this box called scan box. He got it from Amazon. Using it, I was able to
get almost a perfect stand of a letter I got. True, the printing was very good,
but I also read a bill and was able to figure out who
I shall have to give this a look. I had some kind of okay results with Text
Detective and much worswe with Prismo. Seems to me that the problem comes down
to my just not knowing exactly how to hold the phone the right distance from
the page and angle the camera lense just right. Thanks for
