Well I know the IPhone camera, when running through the Seeing AI's Short Channel is a bit sensitive. Actually quite sensitive indeed. One must really hold the camera steady. I let it pick up on the verbiage, then instantly as it starts reading, flick the camera lens away so its not aiming at any other readable verbiage. Doing it this way; it'll read quite a bit, before you have to refocus it.
I'm getting more and more used to all the channels on this in creditable app! A big time thumbs up for sure Mr. Microsoft! -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Dave Mitchel Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2017 3:33 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Seeing AI Short Text Function I had a little trouble with the text starting over but just muddled through. I figure it might be the monitor doing something to make it do that. -----Original Message----- From: Kelby Carlson Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2017 11:41 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Seeing AI Short Text Function I am using the iPhone 7. Is there a specific resolution your monitor needs to be set at to work properly? Also, I feel like I do a decent job of holding the camera still but the text always stops and restarts.
