Scanner for the Blind

Just a quick reminder to go to the Visual Independence website
www.visualindependence.org.au
They are the Australian charity who have brought the I.D Mate Scanner to Australia.
The scanner allows blind people to know what products they are looking at in supermarkets and around the home, and can be customised to include information not just about supermarket (and the sort) products with a barcode but items around the home as well like clothes and the dishwasher.

To find out more info- go to the website at visualindependence.org.au or contact your local vision industry (ie: Vision Australia)

All the best to all our tech groupies, Feel free to send us a message!
