Clarity, the market leader in portable assistive technology for visually
impaired and blind
individuals announced the introduction of WinZoom, the industry's first
truly plug and play Screen Magnifier and Reader. WinZoom also contains
several proprietary advancements over the current screen magnifiers like our
ClearPoint font smoothing which keeps the crystal clear text quality
regardless of the zoom level. Our SmartAlign technology also allows the user
to re-align entire paragraphs to fit on the screen with a simple mouse
click.
New Screen Magnifier and Reader Offers True Portability
In addition, WinZoom supports 8 different viewing modes, ensuring a perfect
zoom mode for any situation; contains several locators which allow the user
to know where they are on the page at anytime; and has several mouse
enhancements available to allow the user to customize their mouse size and
color. According to Dave Brody, CEO of Clarity, "WinZoom takes screen
magnification and reading technology to the next level. The portability of
the product, along with it's feature set are unmatched with the other
products currently available. With WinZoom, Clarity has once again shown
their market leadership in low vision assistive technology."
True Portability
Other screen magnifier/readers claim to be portable and easily installed on
multiple computers. Only WinZoom USB is truly portable and will install on
any Windows compatible computer with no software installation required.
Simply plug WinZoom USB in and the autoplay function will launch the
application immediately and let you use it without having to download any
software or drivers. There is no administrative privileges required which is
key when using a public computer, such as, ones at a hotel, library, school
or even at a friends house. When you are done, just unplug WinZoom and there
is no
trace left on the computer.
