Israeli start-up OrCam Technologies’ handheld digital reader OrCam Read has been named Best Consumer Edge AI End Product by the 2022 Edge AI and Vision Product of the Year Awards.
Launched in 2020, the OrCam Read supports people with mild to moderate vision loss, as well as those with reading challenges. Text from any surface is captured and read back in real time through a tiny speaker. With point-and-click operation, OrCam said the lightweight device is the first and only personal artificial intelligence (AI) reader able to instantly capture full pages of text from both print and screens without any display screen, app, or cloud connectivity.
