New Reading Pen II
The Reading Pen II was particularly designed for people with reading or learning disabilities, such as dyslexia. It is also useful for people who are learning English, or want the convenience of having a dictionary at their fingertips. It contains The American Heritage® College Dictionary. It assists users by providing a definition of the scanned word or line of text, as well as reading both the words and definition aloud using its miniaturized text-to-speech technology. Individual words are enlarged on the display, and words may be spelled out, or broken into syllables. If a person is reading and comes to an unrecognized word, the user can simply scan it, and the word will be spoken. Because of its complete portability, this pocket-sized reading technology can be used where and when needed.
