Woops, I should have checked all of my mail before replying. I recommended
Talking Goggles.
Actually, I've had the same issues with talking Goggles as you're
describing. I can try TapTap See under the same conditions, i.e. distance
from the object and lighting and get usable results from TapTap See.
TapTap See will identify pictures and give you a general summary.I took a
picture of my dad sitting outside smoking a cigar and it told me the pic was
a man in a green jacket. I'm not sure if it didn't recognize the cigar or
if it just zeroed in on the most obvious parts of the picture. Also, my dad
is bald, so it didn't have any hair to describe. It recognized I had a
black dog, though, so you might get lucky with a hair color.
I tried identifying a 2 liter of Pepsi using Talking Goggles and it never
gave me any information while TapTap See was able to confirm that it was
seeing a 2 liter of Pepsi. Again, same product under the same conditions.
Both apps are useful, but Talking Goggles seems to be more particular
regarding lighting and proximity to whatever you want described. I've
gotten it to read a few laundry detergent bottles and my PC screen enough to
know where I was once when I lost speech, so it's worth the small price tag
for those two instances alone.

Subject: Camera app question
Okay, so in briefly playing around with Talking Goggles app, I got it to
read portions of text to me, I've been trying to take a picture of the
bottle of water, but for whatever reason it's not reading anything about
that to me. I am in a fairly lit room, so not sure what's going on. What I'm
Looking for, is an app that will tell me various products, and maybe that
will read text to me, but will also tell me for example if I take a picture
of my niece, is there one out there that will say for example, picture of a
girls face with blond hair, etc, Or could this be done using the video
camera, or am I thinking a little too far ahead in technology? Maybe I'll
giveTap Tap See a try. Also, where are The pictures stored that you take
with Talking Goggles?
