Hi Don
I replied to this message on the other list & so did 1 other person.
Not sure why you didn't see the messages.
Anyway...
I tested reading my Aa & AAA batteries with the KNFB & camfind apps.
Both apps were able to identify the brand name of the battery, battery
size & warning info. It was a bit harder to get the info from the AAA
battery because the battery is small. I would assume that you could
use Be My Eyes or even Facetime to obtain the info from the batteries
being that you will have sighted assistance. The writing on AA & AAA
batteries is parallel to the seam. The brand name & size is located
slightly away from the overlapping seam. Being that cell batteries are
a metallic silver color (shiney) & the size is etched into the battery
it may be harder for an app to identify.
Donna I'm not sure
Although the below message is only marginally related to IOS, I am
posting it here as I got no response whatsoever when I posted it to a
general tech list.
I hope that I can verbalize these questions in a way which makes
sense. .
Recently several loose (unpackaged) batteries, Double and triple A,
got mixed together. Some are regular alkaline and some are
rechargeable and hybrid rechargeables. I wish to separate these into
appropriate groups by using something like Bespecular, Be My Eyes, or
possibly the KNFB reader for IOS.
First of all, I am wondering whether the camera in my I Phone 6 can
accomplish this with something as small and curved as a triple A
battery. Second, does the relevant info on the battery go with the
curvature of the battery, or is it written parallel to the seam? I
would assume it would be parallel to the seam, but we all know what
happens when one assumes. Also, is the information to be read likely
to be near the seam?
Last question for today. Although I do not have any button batteries
whose numbers I need to know, but would my i phone 6 camera be able
to identify the numbers on a button battery?
Thanks.
