RE: the red lazor app
According to Richard, you do have to tap the heading which says "Scan" in order to make it scan after you've had one successful scan (or I think after you've gone to some other screen like its "settings" screen). Try that, as I don't think it can hurt.

Re: the red lazor app
hi, As soon as you open the app it is scanning. obviously, you have to have a barcode for it to scan. The easiest thing to do would be to have a package, but you know has a barcode on it, scan the package slowly until you hear a pin or a vibration. then a new screen will open with the choice of searching Amazon or Google, are usually choose Google. if you have your rotor set to headings, you can flick down between the results. When you have finished, there is a done button at the top.

RE: NeoReader, was RE: the red lazor app
Yah, I had forgotten how well Digit-Eyes does with this, you're right. Chip -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2017 5:06 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: NeoReader, was RE: the red lazor app In NeoReader, if you take the app out of the app switcher, it won't stay on. I can't say if it won't when you just exit the app. Here are the scanning tips from the Digit-eyes web site, the basic information is good for any scanning app. Just ignore the spots where it refers to the clicks and things specific to Digit-eyes. I think everyone should just spend the $9.99 for Digit-eyes, but these techniques will help with any bar code scanner. This will also answer the question about how to find bar codes. Scanning Tips If you are just starting to use the Digit-Eyes products, click here to learn about scanning. Q. Where will I find UPC codes? A. UPC codes are typically located where humans will not find them. They are oblong, typically at least one half inch / 1 cm in height and at least three times as long as they are tall. You will find the bar codes are often located: on boxes: away from the side that is opened. on cans with wrapped labels: adjacent to the seam where the labels are joined on jars with a single label: as far away from the center portion of the label as possible. on jars with two labels: on the back label (typically the front label will be larger and may be more elaborate in shape; back labels are typically smaller and simpler.) on packages that are rectangular with small sides: on the longer of the two small sides. They will almost always be within 4 inches of the bottom of the object because that is typically the maximum scan height of a supermarket scanner. Q. What about soda cans and things that don't have obvious labels? A. It can be difficult to locate codes on items that are round and that have continuous wrap labels or where the bar code is part of the printing, as on a soda can. In this case, it is typically necessary to scan the entire label surface. We've found it convenient to do this by bracing the bottom of the phone on a table and putting the can in front of it. When the phone is scanning, it makes ticking noises. Each time that there is a tick, turn the can 1/4 turn in front of the camera. We have found that it rarely takes all four turns to get a scan. Q. Any tricks for scanning UPC / EAN codes? A. When you are starting out, you should definitely try the practice sheets . These let you become familiar with the use of the camera. After getting comfortable with the practice exercises, try a real item and start with a box. Initially, you will probably find that it is usually easier to hold the phone steady and turn the item slowly in front of it. One of our customers reports that he got great results by using a holder from his wife's plate collection, putting the phone in it and turning the item in front of it. After you have more a feel for the process, you'll probably want to transition to holding the phone in your hand, but a hands-free approach can be very useful when putting the groceries away! Helpful Hint: If you are having problems with the object, we recommend rotating it 90 degrees; the bar codes can be scanned from any angle and rotating the object will cause the autofocus on the camera to reset. Q. Where will I find the Digit-Eyes codes? A. The Digit-Eyes codes are printed on address labels before being stuck on the item that they label. The labels can be quickly and easily found by touch; since you are the person who sticks them on the item, you can put them anyplace that seems convenient. Q. Any tricks for scanning Digit-Eyes codes? A. The codes will be captured faster if they are relatively "square" to the phone. The camera is in the upper right back of the iPhone or iPod when you are holding the phone with the "home" button at the bottom and facing you. Locate the code by touch and put the lens of the camera on the code with the top and right edges of the phone lined up with the top and right edges of the label. Start the scanning operation and lift the phone away from the code. It will make the ticking noise until it recognizes the code. At that time it will beep and vibrate to alert you that it has found the code and is processing it. After identifying the code, Digit-Eyes will either play the recorded content or voice the text, if the label was pre-recorded or if it includes text; otherwise, it will just invite you to record. Some people find that aligning one of their fingers with the camera and using it "point" to the code while scanning is a helpful way to make sure the phone stays aligned, but you will probably not need to do this after you've had a litt

As for finding the barcode, just slowly rotate the can, or present each side of the box in front of the camera and give it a few seconds, when I tried it with a can of soup I slowly rotated the can approx 10 inches in front of the camera and it vibrated when it saw the barcode. Then it let me search, and then it told me about what it found.

RE: NeoReader, was RE: the red lazor app
Don, No, I'm sure as soon as the app is in the background or closed then the camera isn't consuming any power. As for finding the barcode, just slowly rotate the can, or present each side of the box in front of the camera and give it a few seconds, when I tried it with a can of soup I slowly rotated the can approx 10 inches in front of the camera and it vibrated when it saw the barcode. Then it let me search, and then it told me about what it found. Thanks to Richard's observation, you wouldn't really have to worry about the camera being "always on" like I was guessing at first, so we just need to let them know about these little doc deficiencies (for blind users).

RE: NeoReader, was RE: the red lazor app
In NeoReader, if you take the app out of the app switcher, it won't stay on. I can't say if it won't when you just exit the app. Here are the scanning tips from the Digit-eyes web site, the basic information is good for any scanning app. Just ignore the spots where it refers to the clicks and things specific to Digit-eyes. I think everyone should just spend the $9.99 for Digit-eyes, but these techniques will help with any bar code scanner. This will also answer the question about how to find bar codes. Scanning Tips If you are just starting to use the Digit-Eyes products, click here to learn about scanning. Q. Where will I find UPC codes? A. UPC codes are typically located where humans will not find them. They are oblong, typically at least one half inch / 1 cm in height and at least three times as long as they are tall. You will find the bar codes are often located: on boxes: away from the side that is opened. on cans with wrapped labels: adjacent to the seam where the labels are joined on jars with a single label: as far away from the center portion of the label as possible. on jars with two labels: on the back label (typically the front label will be larger and may be more elaborate in shape; back labels are typically smaller and simpler.) on packages that are rectangular with small sides: on the longer of the two small sides. They will almost always be within 4 inches of the bottom of the object because that is typically the maximum scan height of a supermarket scanner. Q. What about soda cans and things that don't have obvious labels? A. It can be difficult to locate codes on items that are round and that have continuous wrap labels or where the bar code is part of the printing, as on a soda can. In this case, it is typically necessary to scan the entire label surface. We've found it convenient to do this by bracing the bottom of the phone on a table and putting the can in front of it. When the phone is scanning, it makes ticking noises. Each time that there is a tick, turn the can 1/4 turn in front of the camera. We have found that it rarely takes all four turns to get a scan. Q. Any tricks for scanning UPC / EAN codes? A. When you are starting out, you should definitely try the practice sheets . These let you become familiar with the use of the camera. After getting comfortable with the practice exercises, try a real item and start with a box. Initially, you will probably find that it is usually easier to hold the phone steady and turn the item slowly in front of it. One of our customers reports that he got great results by using a holder from his wife's plate collection, putting the phone in it and turning the item in front of it. After you have more a feel for the process, you'll probably want to transition to holding the phone in your hand, but a hands-free approach can be very useful when putting the groceries away! Helpful Hint: If you are having problems with the object, we recommend rotating it 90 degrees; the bar codes can be scanned from any angle and rotating the object will cause the autofocus on the camera to reset. Q. Where will I find the Digit-Eyes codes? A. The Digit-Eyes codes are printed on address labels before being stuck on the item that they label. The labels can be quickly and easily found by touch; since you are the person who sticks them on the item, you can put them anyplace that seems convenient. Q. Any tricks for scanning Digit-Eyes codes? A. The codes will be captured faster if they are relatively "square" to the phone. The camera is in the upper right back of the iPhone or iPod when you are holding the phone with the "home" button at the bottom and facing you. Locate the code by touch and put the lens of the camera on the code with the top and right edges of the phone lined up with the top and right edges of the label. Start the scanning operation and lift the phone away from the code. It will make the ticking noise until it recognizes the code. At that time it will beep and vibrate to alert you that it has found the code and is processing it. After identifying the code, Digit-Eyes will either play the recorded content or voice the text, if the label was pre-recorded or if it includes text; otherwise, it will just invite you to record. Some people find that aligning one of their fingers with the camera and using it "point" to the code while scanning is a helpful way to make sure the phone stays aligned, but you will probably not need to do this after you've had a little bit of practice. Helpful hint: if VoiceOver persists in talking to you with instructions when you want to record, you can quiet it with a two-finger double tap. Q. Does the orientation of the code or label matter? A. No. Digit-Eyes can read any code in any direction. Q. How far away should the camera be from the item being scanned? A. The answer to this question depends on

That’s great, just needed that bit of info that you do nothing in order to start the scanning. Sandra is right, it’s by far the easiest and best barcode scanning app for Iphones I’ve ever seen, and very close to the BCScan program with Omni directional scanner from AT Guys. Just not exactly designed for blind users; I’m sure there’s something visually indicating that scanning is happening. I do suspect you’d have to be careful not to leave it on all the time, I don’t see how it couldn’t help but be a significant battery drain if it’s always accessing the camera.

Neoscan; was RE: the red lazor app
Ahhh, ok, it seems it is accessing your camera *all* of the time; I accidentally positioned it over a barcode and it found it! That’s great, just needed that bit of info that you do nothing in order to start the scanning. Sandra is right, it’s by far the easiest and best barcode scanning app for Iphones I’ve ever seen, and very close to the BCScan program with Omni directional scanner from AT Guys. Just not exactly designed for blind users; I’m sure there’s something visually indicating that scanning is happening. I do suspect you’d have to be careful not to leave it on all the time, I don’t see how it couldn’t help but be a significant battery drain if it’s always accessing the camera.

Re: the red lazor app
I just downloaded one called NeoReader. It seems to have a better omnidirectional scanner. you don't get the results straight away, you have to choose Amazon or Google search, I choose Google, and then are usually get very good results! sent from the dark side of the moon > On 27 Jan 2017, at 16:07, Kelly Pierce wrote: > > These and similar apps often cannot read bar codes on cans and bottles > because they have difficulty processing the bar code from the curved > surface of the item.

RE: the red lazor app
I used to have good luck with Red Laser, but lately it seems like the app either crashes or when it finds the barcode, it only reads out the UPC code itself rather than identifying the product.

Re: the red lazor app
These and similar apps often cannot read bar codes on cans and bottles because they have difficulty processing the bar code from the curved surface of the item. Other apps, like Identifi, match the photo with package designs in their database along with bar codes. This often can deliver some data about the item.
