[AI] Fwd: Term of the Day: Takeover Artist
Definition of 'Takeover Artist' An investor or company whose primary goal is to identify companies that are attractive to buy and that can be turned around to make a profit. A takeover artist will usually use a lot of debt (leverage) to make the purchase, and restructure the company for resale or add the company to an existing group of companies. Investopedia Says Investopedia explains 'Takeover Artist' Takeover artists are also sometimes referred to as corporate raiders. Frequently, the reason for a takeover is to remove entrenched management that the corporate raider believes is incompetent. For example, in the 1980s, Carl Icahn (a well-known takeover artist), launched a takeover of Trans World Airlines and turned the company from an unprofitable company to a profitable one in a few short years. He took the company from a loss of $193 million in 1985 to a profit of $106 million in 1987, and $250 million the next year. However, it was short-lived, as Trans World Airlines posted a $298 million loss in 1989. -- nothing is difficult unless you make it appear so. r. aravind, clerk in andhrabank, mobile no: +91 9940369593, email id : aravind_...@yahoo.com, aravind.andhrab...@gmail.com.

Re: [AI] Scanner
Dear Amar Mukesh Sir, i contacted Sparsh Products Mr. Abhinav was kind enough to demonstrate the Readit Scholar HD to my brother on Skype. It is quite amazing as it was able to scan complete A4 size book newspaper with high accuracy. But for me to purchase it is financially not possible. Therefore i am thinking to purchase Lex and i have used it in my university also. As per your suggestion i went through Pearl camera also, but I found some drawbacks as compared to Lex. a) Price of pearl is approx Rs. 80,000 of Lex is approx 50,000 b) both the cameras have 5 MPX resolution c) Openbook cannot save in pdf format, which is highly required by student like me because the layout needs to remain the same d) size of lex camera is quite small Please correct me if I am wrong. Your views are highly appreciated. Sakshi On Sat, Jan 11, 2014 at 1:12 PM, Sakshi Agrawal sakshiagrawal19...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for your suggestions.

Sakshi On Sat, Jan 11, 2014 at 11:51 AM, Amar Jain amarjain2...@gmail.comwrote: Hi Sakshi, It is surely a challenge to scan A3 size books with normal scanners. The OCR gives quite inaccurate results. You can either use camera scanners, or you have to unbind the book in order to get good results if you are using a normal scanner. ReadIt HD from Vision Aid is the only product as suggested by Mukesh bhaiya which caters to A3 size as far as I know. However, check their support quality (of the company and not of the distributor), because I was not impressed when I interacted with Vision Aid in 2011. If you don't plan to spend that much, then I suggest you to go for camera scanners which cater to A4. Pearl is one of them which I regularly use, and I must say that it gives quite good results with A3 size as well. A point to look here is that what kind of material you need to scan. In my case, it is mostly a text, with footnotes. Do you have pretty colored book to scan with lots of images in it? Is the material written in column format (news paper style)? Or it consists of Maths and stuff? In that case, I advise you take an in-depth test of the camera scanners while making a choice. All companies claim that the OCR works good in such cases, but you really have to tweek the settings according to the book. And if camera scanner is not you want, then which OCR you are using? Consider buying a big scanner with good PPM (per page minute) speed. But you will have to carefully deal with the books if you can't unbind them for scanning at all. Cannon's scanning quality I have always liked. HTH, -- Amar Jain. Website: www.amarjain.com Time to meet up again!

Re: [AI] Scanner
hello, there might be advantages for using lex camera over pearl but personally i am happy with the performance of pearl camera. secondly, in my view, when thing comes to assistive technology, if i am spending additionallly on such devices, to me, after sales support and brand matters lot. as pearl is manufactured by freedom scientific company having vast experience in this field as compared to vision aid technologies, i can be best assured with its support in case of any assistance. no doubt, Mr. Abhinav from sparsh product is always available for any queries and has good amount of supportive stratigies, but i don't know whom to approach besides him as i found this to be one man show. i may be wrong in my findings. thanks, On 1/11/14, Sakshi Agrawal sakshiagrawal19...@gmail.com wrote: Dear Amar Mukesh Sir, i contacted Sparsh Products Mr. Abhinav was kind enough to demonstrate the Readit Scholar HD to my brother on Skype.

[AI] Accessibility With 3d Printing
You’ve heard of 3D printing from newscasters and journalists, astonished at what they’ve witnessed. A machine reminiscent of the Star Trek Replicator, something magical that can create objects out of thin air. It can “print” in plastic, metal, nylon, and over a hundred other materials. It can be used for making nonsensical little models like the over-printed Yoda, yet it can also print manufacturing prototypes, end user products, quasi-legal guns, aircraft engine parts and even human organs using a person’s own cells. To perform a print, the machine reads the design from an stl file and lays down successive layers of liquid, powder, paper or sheet material to build the model from a series of cross sections. These layers, which correspond to the virtual cross sections from the CAD model, are joined or automatically fused to create the final shape. The primary advantage of this technique is its ability to create almost any shape or geometric feature.To perform a print, the machine reads the design from an stl file and lays down successive layers of liquid, powder, paper or sheet material to build the model from a series of cross sections.

Re: [AI] Scanner
Dear Sakshi, Appreciate your concerns. Abhinav is no doubt an excellent person who can help you whenever you need support. Vision Aid may be improving day by day. I am quite satisfied with Abhinav personally. In fact I am also looking to talk to him when I visit Techshare Exhibition. Talk about few things with Abhinav or Vision Aid: 1. What is their upgrade policy? Normally it should be 2 versions after purchase. 2. What is the warranty of the hardware? Should be around 2 years or so. I was required to replace my hardware in 2 years, as I had to scan around 6000 or more pages in every 6 months or sometimes even before that. (giving you rough estimate, could be little more than that.). 3. In case you need to get your hardware repaired, approximately how much time it will take for you to receive the repaired / rplaced unit? 2-3 weeks should be good enough. This should not be a major concern, but within what span they release the software updates? Openbook is quite slow in that sense. Another point to consider is that whether the camera scanner works with other softwares like Fine Reader or not? Pearl, for example doesn't work with any other software. This is a drawback, as you can't use the quality of other softwares like Fine Reader. So FS in that sense tries to keep its monopoly. As far as I know, Vision Aid's cameras work with other softwares as well. Another problem of Openbook besides not being able to save in PDF is that it doesn't allow one to save in JPG more than one page. You may have read a recent query in this regard. I generally use exact view of Openbook, which retains the kind of layout you may want to have. Are you talking about LexCam? It was being discontinued. Please visit: www.visionaid.com. If you have used the Vision Aid's cameras, then I don't want to say you anything contradictory, as you know what kind of material you need to scan. I agree with all the points you have raised between Pearl and Vision Aid's devices. But if your material is too challenging to scan in general, then please take proper demo from all distributors before making a choice. I mean to say try it out with your own material. In case of Pearl, I would be happy to help you with a sample. Regards, -- Amar Jain. Website: www.amarjain.com Time to meet up again!
