Sieghard, I am wondering why my LiDAR does not tell me the details that Jonathan's did on his podcast.

The term LiDAR stands for "Light Detection and Ranging" which means the LiDAR sensor consists of an transmitter which sends out a laser beam, this is reflected by an object or objects and received again by the receiver component of the sensor. Then the "TOF" which stands for time of flight is used to calculate the distance so while LiDAR might be used to enable features like door detection and so on, it has nothing to do with performing OCR on printed text. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Carolyn Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2022 6:15 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Reading prescription labels You could gently remove the label and get Seeing A I to read it. I guess LiDAR could, if you have it? -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2022 8:12 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Reading prescription labels The problem is reading on the curve. The best solution is to get the pharmacy to connect with Envision America and their ScrirtTalk program which gives visually impaired people access to all of the medication info including the prescription number and refills remaining, etc. You could try Voice Dream Scanner.

I tried seeing ai but it didn't work very well at all. The rx number was too high on the label and the container lid got in the way I think. -- Sincerely, Donald Raikes, CPACC Accessibility Specialist IAAP Certified Professional in Accessibility Core <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/cpacccertification__;!!GqivPVa7Brio!ITXXARxD3iTCnbAoB96JZAdz253IVd2urWYbOsB5MNjTAjmFErX-iqpRl4NrjAo7$> competencies -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
