[AI] Braille Monitor on Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader
This article is about an year old. Am posting it for those who may not have read it. Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader Braille Monitor July 2006 The Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader The Revolution Is Here! by James Gashel >From the Editor: Jim Gashel is the executive director for strategic >initiatives for the National Federation of the Blind. He has been as involved >as anyone in the planning and development of the Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader. Now that the beta testing period is drawing to a close, it seemed appropriate to ask him to make the announcement of the extraordinary results of the collaboration between technological genius and the knowledge and expertise of blind people. This is what he says: David Wright holds the Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader. In 1975 Ray Kurzweil invented the first multi-font optical character recognition (OCR) technology capable of converting printed characters into full-word synthetic speech. This system, which was about the size of a small dishwasher, was called the Kurzweil Reading Machine. Joining with Ray Kurzweil to test and launch this product, the NFB secured financial support to purchase six preproduction units at a cost of $50,000 each. This technology was unique and revolutionary in its time. Personal computers were not widely available and were not a mass-consumer product in the 1970's, so the original Kurzweil Reading Machine was a stand-alone, dedicated reading system with its own internal computer and built-in scanner. Today the more modern version of the same technology--the Kurzweil 1000--is computer software running on a standard desktop PC connected to a scanner. Although a certain amount of competition has developed over the last thirty years, the Kurzweil Reading Machine and its offspring have been widely regarded as the gold standard in text-to-speech conversion technology. However, having this technology in a completely portable form has been an unrealized dream. That was true until March 2006, when blind people throughout the United States started to learn about and use the world's first handheld, text-to-speech electronic reading system for the blind. This is called the Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader. The name says it all. Unlike the Kurzweil Reading Machine, named for Ray Kurzweil as its inventor, the portable Reader has been designed by Ray Kurzweil and the National Federation of the Blind. Therefore this device bears both names. This name also symbolizes the fact that the blind themselves have played a leading role in making the world's first completely portable reader a reality. The Reader combines the latest state-of-the-art digital camera technology with a powerful personal data assistant (PDA). These components are housed in a custom-designed vinyl case that also contains internal circuitry to connect the camera and PDA to operate as a single system. Aside from this hardware, the software is completely new in blindness technology, with several features especially designed for this unique device. Here are some of the vital statistics: the Reader is 6 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 2-1/2 inches thick and weighs 15 ounces. Although the Reader is about a thousand times smaller than the original Kurzweil Reading Machine, the PDA in the portable Reader is two thousand times faster. In fact, the portable Reader can execute about 500 million instructions per second as compared to 250,000 instructions per second for the Kurzweil Reading Machine. It also has a thousand times more memory (64 megabytes as compared to 64 kilobytes). But the real difference is to have the power of reading in the palm of your hand. Here are a few reactions from early users known as "Reader ambassadors" and "Reader pioneers": Dwight Sayer: I have a neat story. Last week my BrailleNote rep came over to bring my GPS unit and some software. She had gotten the disks mixed up, and no one sighted was around. She couldn't tell which one was mine. I said, "Wait a second . . ." I picked up a disk and shot a picture just pointing the Reader straight at it. . . . In a few seconds the Reader just rattled off the text on the CD, and I found I had my software right in my hands. The rep, who was drooling by that time, spent the next hour or so testing the Reader on everything from her checkbook to a receipt she had in her purse. By the way the ATM receipts that pop out of our great ATM machine at the National Center were read with ease as I was wondering what my balance was. . . . This little machine is a keeper! Diane McGeorge investigates the navigation controls of the Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader.

Combining a state-ofthe- art digital camera with a powerful personal data assistant housed in a customdesigned, attractive case, the Kurzweil- National Federation of the Blind Reader puts the best available character recognition software together with text-to-speech conversion technology, all in the palm of your hand. Hold the Reader’s camera over print—a restaurant menu, directions, or a memo from your boss—and snap a picture. In seconds you can hear the contents of the printed document in clear synthetic speech. Capture, read, and discard pages; store them for later reading; or transfer files to a computer or Braille-aware PDA. The Reader even has a headphone jack so you won’t disturb your neighbors. The Reader’s convenient size, simple design, and powerful technology deliver unprecedented access to printed matter. The Kurzweil–National Federation of the Blind Reader • Reads most printed documents from letters and memos to pages in a book. • Reads address labels and package information and instructions. • Reads an entire page or a few lines for identification. • Stores thousands of printed pages with easily obtainable extra memory. • Transfers files to desktop and laptop computers or Braille notetakers. • Reads documents from computers or other devices. Imagine how the Reader will change your life. A colleague hands you a document for review in the next hour? No problem. You come back from vacation to an overflowing in-basket? Put the Reader to work, and the clutter is gone. Need to check your seat assignment in the airport? The information can be a snapshot away. You’ll find hundreds of uses for the Reader every day—all in one small package and for less than you would pay for a portable notetaker with a Braille display. No other device in the history of adaptive technology for the blind has provided quicker access to more information than the Kurzweil–National Federation of the Blind Reader. The world of the printed word is about to be opened to the blind in a way it has never been before. Get ready; the revolution begins today.
