[Nfbmo] cool new free app i just found

Tue Jul 25 14:45:42 UTC 2017

I only had a chance to play with it for a minute or two the day it came out. It sounded like everything said beta, which gave me the impression it is still all in testing. This is good, because that means the app is being trained, and there is a lot of room to get things right.

It is a work in progress but there are prompts as to if things are aligned.
It is a free app so give it a try.  It is not perfict but it is fun to play with.

Can you do this without seeing enough to focus?

If you have an I phone try out the app seeing AI cool example of using AI
for 4 types of image analysis.  The app is also a good tool for low or no
vision people.

It can.
1. recognize and speak short text.  Used it to read buttons on flat
appliances.
2. OCR on full pages (will let you know when you have full page in view and
read it) 3. Read bar codes. (used it to identify food boxes and cahs) 4.
recognize faces. (location in picture and can train to assign names to
faces)
5 try and describe a seen. ((have tried this and it is surprising how many
time it is correct)

cool AI.
