I thought that was what you meant, but wanted to be clear.

Rather than spending several thousand on the Envision glasses, I would just use 
FaceTime and call a friend and use the phone camera.  You could even put the 
phone in a stand and position the sheet music in the camera focus and then you 
could change pages without moving the phone around.

No, I’m saying the opposite there are some people who think that the glasses 
actually read sheet music early on in the thread and that’s what I was 
responding to Richard. The only way I can see any sort of glasses reading sheet 
music is if you actually for example and I know not many of you own these 
glasses but the Envision glasses has a feature called call a companion if you 
have companions that are signed up to be your eyes that read music you could 
definitely use it for that reason I know I have a couple of people who I know 
that read sheet music. One is a piano player, the other a trumpet player And it 
helps. especially if I don’t get it right the first time then they can actually 
play it and I can figure out that way.

I disagree none of these glasses or otherwise read sheet music. I found 
something that does other than an app called sheet music scanner but it plays 
it and it also tells you the court names if you’re looking for something on the 
computer as well give muse score a try.

That's what I was thinking after my last post. 

It's not really OCR here but rather a lack of  understanding by the app of 
musical notation whisch it is obviously not programmed to do. 

Ally has it's many good points gut musical notation appears not to be one of 
them.

Music notation is very graphical and specialized.

Saying if it can read print is like saying any sighted person who can read 
print can read music, which is not true.

It takes special learning to understand all the note shapes, their position on 
the musical staff, etc.

They maybe will program that into the AI at some point, but it isn't there yet.

Do request it from those who produce these AI bots/software.

Sandy, what I can' understand is that if Ally raeads print for us in full then 
you would expectt it to read music notation.

Ruby,

I just asked the envisage if the AI app if he can read musical notation. he 
said no, but that's only because he's not got the software to do it. in other 
words, a bit like OCR, I don't see any reason why that functionality couldn't 
be added in. I suspect, if different members of the community were to put in 
request for this functionality, you might be successful! Do consider 
downloading the envision ally app and then put in a request!

All the best, Sandy NZ

Hi, 

from my research etc certainly in my country of the EU these  glasses will not 
read text but ratrther summarise  if  you like. 

There is a comparatively new app out now called Envision Ally which 
incidentally is free and it should do that for you. 

It certrtainly reads print for me on a magazine I have just tried.

Hello group members, has anyone has a success in reading music notation with 
the Meta AI Glasses? I would be very interested to buy these glasses if it can 
help me with reading music scores, and to look at the students sitting postures 
and finger movements and techniques. please can anyone throw a light on me 
regarding this? Any help will be appreciated greatly. Thanks again, Ruby.
