Thanks Tom, I was able to remember the name by going to AppleVis. I downloaded it onto my iPhone 4S and using moderate room light I was able to get it to successfully identify nearly all the objects I placed in front of it. For a first version I think it's pretty good, but like others have said a repeat function would be good. I will admit I have some sight so I can line things up pretty well, even if I can't read the print myself, but even items placed upside down are recognized. I will have to see how my friend who has less vision than I do and who says she can't use her Camara to do VizWiz or other apps like that does with this.
Thanks, Katey Sent from my iPad On Jan 20, 2013, at 7:48 PM, "Thom" <thom3...@gmail.com> wrote: > make sure you have a good light source > > -----Original Message----- > From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf > Of Debbie Downey > Sent: Sunday, January 20, 2013 7:25 PM > To: viphone@googlegroups.com > Subject: RE: Object recognition app > > > I just installed this app and would like to know whether this only works > outdoors?
