Ok here is how you use knfb reader this is just an example.
Imagine you are a student in college. You have some paper handouts
that you got from class that you cannot read, you also have a print
textbook. So how do you read it? First you unlock your android phone
or your iPhone. Then you go into the knnfb reader app. And then you
hold the phone a foot above the page. And then you press the field of
view report button first making sure you are pointing the camera on
the bottom of the phone down towards the page. Then you hit field of
view report button you double tap it on the phone’s touch screen. You
hear your phone say outloud with its screen reader:
All four corners of the page are visible.
Then holding the phone as steady as you can, you double tap the take
picture button. The phone snaps a photo of the page, does OCR on the
text, and reads the text out loud to you. And you can scan whole
entire books very very fast with just the 8mp camera on your smartphone.

And it's a fabulous OCR which is how it started. I have it on my iPhone
and can read just about anything imaginable. Think beyond a document
reader. I've read food boxes, cans, button labels and serial numbers on
gadgets, etc. It also works pretty good when you have to read your
computer screen or any other kind of display.
There's also a free one from Microsoft called seeing AI. It's useful but
doesn't compare to KNFB when it comes right down to it.
Regards,
Tom
