[Nfbmt] New Israeli invention for the visually impaired

Fri Nov 22 02:13:19 UTC 2013

Hi Jim.  Can you let me know what you discern from the video when you watch
it?  I'm very interested in the device but there is very little information
contained in the video.  
Thanks.
Becca

Hi all,

Like so many things, this is probably still under development and not ready
for prime time! I'm not certain I'd want it if it used a laptop or netbook!
I'd like it a bit smaller but this should happen in time.  
I'll probably watch the video later.

Jim
