[nfbcs] CSUN next week!

[George]

Hello,

Amedia, Japan will be at CSUN (Booth 919), showing its new products for 
the visually impaired.

Lately, Amedia has put two assistive products for the visually impaired 
on the market and they will show them.
If you are attending CSUN conference (March 3-6, 2015) you may meet 
Amedia Staff at booth 919.

One is YMB, an OCR amplifying and talking machine. It magnifies the 
material scanned and reads with a clear voice. It recognizes and reads 
printed material in English,
Japanese, Chinese and Korean with clear voices.
Since it uses a built-in scanner to capture the images, it is much 
easier for totally blind persons to use than camera-using devices.

End user Price: USD2600.
Please consult the following URL on Amedia's website for details.

Another is iYomube, an iPhone application that reads material written in 
English, Japanese, Chinese and Korean. It can be purchased from the 
Apple Store for less than USD30.

Amedia will also show another product still under development: Amedia 
Reader, which is a camera-type OCR amplifying machine.

Regards,
George
