<div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/zzRtlJFCIiU?rel=0" width="420"></iframe><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BTaXJo0CYAEeR6Z.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="75" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BTaXJo0CYAEeR6Z.png" width="75" /></a></div>Pizmo 3 has just been released with a new design which is perfect for <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2013/06/ios-7-accessibility-overview-what-we.html">iOS 7</a>,  and has some helpful new features. After updating, you will notice a new app icon and a redesigned interface, but the changes go deeper than just a new design. The updated app is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touches running iOS 7. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CC4QFjAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Fprizmo-scanning-ocr-speech%2Fid366791896%3Fmt%3D8&ei=NuU4UveQCqf94APplYDwDA&usg=AFQjCNHyOKTLbhz05uGmmTXwyGag_IRJOw&sig2=xu0XGo1mrr_P7K3blcDpuQ&bvm=bv.52164340,d.dmg">Click here</a> to download Prizmo. Similar to previous versions, Prizmo 3 still allows you to take pictures of text and have the text extracted using optical character recognition (<a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/01/prizmo-great-accurate-full-featured-ocr.html">OCR</a>) in order to have the text read aloud using text-to-speech. In other words, you can take a picture of a document and then <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/01/prizmo-great-accurate-full-featured-ocr.html">Prizmo</a> will read it back to you using text-to-speech. Amazingly, whole process takes less than a minute per page. Prizmo 3 also includes PDF exporting and business card scanning.<br /><br />Prizmo 3 adds a handful of helpful new features including support for dynamic text size, optional faster text-to-speech rate, and one touch multiple page scanning. Dynamic text is a new feature of iOS 7 that allows users to specify a text size that  is easier for them to read.  This text size can be larger or smaller than the default text size. After choosing a text size, all compatible apps, such as Prizmo, will display text in your preferred size. Prizmo 3 also allows users to speed up the text-to-speech rate up to 400% for people who can understand faster speech. Another new time saving feature allows users to scan multi-page documents with a single button press instead of scanning one page at a time. Prizmo 3 is definitely a worthwhile update for all iOS 7 users.<br /><br />To learn more about the features of Prizmo 3 <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2013/05/prizmo-20-for-ios-released-with-cool.html">click here</a>.

NaviDys Browser for iPad Makes Reading the Web Easier

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://si0.twimg.com/profile_images/3471410559/01a6ea2838d24071e0c2e107e814989b.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="200" src="https://si0.twimg.com/profile_images/3471410559/01a6ea2838d24071e0c2e107e814989b.jpeg" title="NaviDys App Icon" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://michaeldardol.com/navidys/">NaviDys</a> is a web browser for the <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2013/04/ireadwrite-ipad-app-word-processing-for.html">iPad</a>. The app allows full customization of a website's font, line spacing, letter spacing, and text size. Currently it is only available on the iPad not the <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/09/best-apps-for-your-new-iphone-5.html">iPhone</a> or iPod Touch. While it feels very much like the built in Safari browser that comes with the iPad, NaviDys has features that make it easier to read the web. For people with low vision the ability to enlarge fonts and increase spacing is beneficial. Also, for dyslexics NaviDys includes the <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2011/08/dyslexie-font-helps-dyslexics-read.html">Dyslexie</a> font. But using a third party browser does not come without trade offs. You cannot open links from other apps directly into NaviDys. Unlike Safari NaviDys does not include a <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2011/12/ios-5-tips-reader-eliminates.html">reader</a> mode to remove distractions from web pages. <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/navidys/id631650011?mt=8">NaviDys costs $2.99 from the App Store.</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Click read more below to view screenshots of NaviDys.</div><a name="more"></a><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a664.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/078/Purple2/v4/52/4a/4c/524a4c98-bfa8-7e1b-e969-68338ac3f6d6/mzl.mjzfxzmp.480x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="292" src="http://a664.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/078/Purple2/v4/52/4a/4c/524a4c98-bfa8-7e1b-e969-68338ac3f6d6/mzl.mjzfxzmp.480x480-75.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a105.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/090/Purple2/v4/c2/3f/6e/c23f6e9c-1cc2-75f2-fe32-c274c3a386ac/mzl.klodiadc.480x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://a105.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/090/Purple2/v4/c2/3f/6e/c23f6e9c-1cc2-75f2-fe32-c274c3a386ac/mzl.klodiadc.480x480-75.jpg" width="305" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a1044.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/118/Purple/v4/c9/fd/ab/c9fdabcf-6c15-ab03-9e9a-9ca3cc648e83/mzl.tdbjlcnu.480x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="292" src="http://a1044.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/118/Purple/v4/c9/fd/ab/c9fdabcf-6c15-ab03-9e9a-9ca3cc648e83/mzl.tdbjlcnu.480x480-75.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a3.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/092/Purple2/v4/77/dc/10/77dc109b-4b48-2baf-acc1-5d8833619930/mzl.qlvckgpu.480x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="292" src="http://a3.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/092/Purple2/v4/77/dc/10/77dc109b-4b48-2baf-acc1-5d8833619930/mzl.qlvckgpu.480x480-75.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

The audio books with intergrated text download and opparate just like any other <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/learning-ally-audio-app-now-free.html">Learning Ally</a> audiobook. If you prefer to just listen to the book and not read along you can do so. The book is read aloud with human narration and each paragraph is highlighted as it is being read. The text and highlighting help users follow the words as the text is being read which can help with comprehension. Some people might find it easier to follow the text if it highlighted word by-word or line- by-line instead of  paragraph-by-paragraph, but including text is a great new feature.<br /><br />The app on the <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/09/best-apps-for-your-new-iphone-5.html">iPhone</a>, <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/10/apple-announces-ipad-mini.html">iPad</a>, and <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/09/brand-new-ipod-touch-announced.html">iPod Touch</a> still does not allow for background download or reading which means that when you close the app the audiobook will stop.

Typ-O App Review

<div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AZknmNUH8bY" width="560"></iframe><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.edtech-associates.com/images/app_typ.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.edtech-associates.com/images/app_typ.gif" /></a>Typo-O is a word prediction, <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/05/ginger-extension-for-chrome-adds.html">spelling</a> and <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html">text-to-speech</a> app for the <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/09/best-apps-for-your-new-iphone-5.html">iPhone</a>, iPad and iPod Touch. The app costs $14.99 and requires iOS 6. <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/typ-o-hd-writing-is-for-everybody!/id372971659?mt=8">Click here</a> to view the app in the App Store. Typ-O is simple and easy to use. To get started just start typing, Typ-O then predicts the which word you are trying to type. You can touch the word to accept the predicted word or you can press on a speaker button to have the word spoken  using a text-to-speech voice. The word prediction is very good and can help improve spelling. Hearing the sentence read back to you using <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html">text-to-speech</a> can also help improve grammar. Once you have finished writing you can send your text via email or text message. Typ-O includes a number of customizable setting to help improve word prediction accuracy. One negative of the app is that it uses <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html">text-to-speech</a> voices from the internet which means if you are not connected to the internet you must use low quality <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html">text-to-speech</a> voices.<br /><br />Watch the video above to see Typ-O in action. <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/typ-o-lite/id516901569?mt=8">Click here</a> to download a lite version of Typ-O to try before you buy.

IBM sees Watson powering a smartphone app that would act like a supper smart <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/01/ask-siri-how-to-spell-unfamiliar-words.html">Siri</a>. The app would answer your complex spoken questions in seconds. Not only would Watson be able to pull up facts quickly but it would be able to offer data driven advice for complex problems. The prospect of a Watson app is very existing but is still many years off. A Watson <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/01/ask-siri-how-to-spell-unfamiliar-words.html">app</a> would be like having a voice activated supper computer in your pocket. Watch the above video to see Watson playing Jeopardy!<br /><br />Unfortunately, the technology for such a large scale role out of this system is years away but it is still fun to know whats coming.

So we’ve combined our speech recognition expertise, understanding of language and the Knowledge Graph so that Voice Search can better interpret your questions and sometimes speak the answers back as full sentences.

Voice Dream Reader App For iOS

<div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/WGNYsGVAL4g" width="560"></iframe><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://otswithapps.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/voice-dream-reader-icon.png?w=101&h=100" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://otswithapps.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/voice-dream-reader-icon.png?w=101&h=100" title="app icon" /></a><br />Voice Dream Reader is a <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html">text-to-speech</a> app for people with reading disabilities or people who just prefer to listen to text. The app costs $4.99 in the App Store. <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/voice-dream-reader-text-to/id496177674?mt=8">Click here</a> to download the app. Voice Dream Reader can extract text from ePub, <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/02/read-pdf-files-aloud-with-vbooks-pdf.html">PDF</a>, Word, Pages, Keynote and web pages and then read them aloud using text-to-speech with <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2011/12/add-quick-text-to-speech-button-to.html">synchronized highlighting</a>. Watch the above video to learn more. Voice Dream Reader comes pre-loaded with the Heather voice, but additional voices can be purchased for $0.99. One downside is that all text formatting and all images are extracted and not visible. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />While reading a document you can change the speech rate, text size and background color. While reading a document it is easy to skip around in the text and look up words. The app cannot read the definitions so you will need to turn on <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/05/flipboard-updated-to-support-voiceover.html">VoiceOver</a>. It is unfortunate that the app does not read the definition because some people may not be familiar with <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/05/flipboard-updated-to-support-voiceover.html">VoiceOver</a>. Voice Dream Reader can be synced with a number of cloud services including Dropbox to get documents into the app.</div><div style="text-align: left;">In all Voice Dream Reader is a solid app. For some, the built in <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/05/apple-to-introduce-new-software-with.html">Speak Selection</a> feature may be good enough. With <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/06/ios-6-guided-access-accessibility.html">iOS 6</a> coming in the fall, <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/05/apple-to-introduce-new-software-with.html">Speak Selection</a> will have syncronized highlighting which will make some features of Voice Dream Reader obsolete. If you want the ability to create playlists or read with multiple voices this app is for you.</div><div style="text-align: left;">Click read more below to view screenshots of Voice Dream Reader in action.</div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><a name="more"></a><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a5.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/063/Purple/v4/fb/cb/12/fbcb12fd-2a87-bb9b-e6a8-8f96f20a07c1/mza_1533233022472650038.320x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://a5.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/063/Purple/v4/fb/cb/12/fbcb12fd-2a87-bb9b-e6a8-8f96f20a07c1/mza_1533233022472650038.320x480-75.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/074/Purple/v4/fa/71/98/fa719877-aa88-d3e1-ae97-42983b32edf1/mza_5604269515751989242.320x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/074/Purple/v4/fa/71/98/fa719877-aa88-d3e1-ae97-42983b32edf1/mza_5604269515751989242.320x480-75.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/064/Purple/v4/c2/21/c0/c221c008-2125-672f-43eb-8613bfd7250f/mza_5349303398175662053.320x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/064/Purple/v4/c2/21/c0/c221c008-2125-672f-43eb-8613bfd7250f/mza_5349303398175662053.320x480-75.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a4.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/080/Purple/v4/f0/9a/f9/f09af9af-931b-33bc-753f-d20b36fec6a7/mza_4199932218881898008.320x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://a4.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/080/Purple/v4/f0/9a/f9/f09af9af-931b-33bc-753f-d20b36fec6a7/mza_4199932218881898008.320x480-75.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a5.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/118/Purple/v4/d3/6b/81/d36b812e-4c09-4304-0a0d-fe54c65f4cae/mza_5744145706037099851.320x480-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://a5.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/118/Purple/v4/d3/6b/81/d36b812e-4c09-4304-0a0d-fe54c65f4cae/mza_5744145706037099851.320x480-75.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="GingerNoCheckEnd"></span></div></div>

Eyes Free Typing With Fleksy For iPhone

<div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/FX2gJXIOrSg?rel=0" width="560"></iframe><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://fleksy.com/">Fleksy</a> is an app for the <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/02/kraken-ii-dockable-case-for-iphone-4.html">iPhone</a> and iPod Touch that allows visually impaired users to type without needing to see the keyboard perfectly. Users press on the screen approximately where they think the correct letter is located on the keyboard. Fleksy is designed only for people with visual impairments. To use the typing feature in the app <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/04/custom-label-ios-buttons-to-work-better.html">VoiceOver</a> must be off, and then when you want to share the text you have typed you must turn <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/04/custom-label-ios-buttons-to-work-better.html">VoiceOver</a> back on by tripple-clicking the home button. <br /><br />As the above video shows the taps on the keyboard can be fairly far from the correct letter without effecting the accuracy. If there are multiple possible words based on your taps. Fleksy will allow you to choose other likely words by flicking up and down on the screen. <br /><br />After each word you must flick right to tell Fleksy that you are done typing that word. After each word, Fleksy will speak the word aloud using <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html">text-to-speech</a>. To add punctuation you can flick to the right twice and the select the correct punctuation. If you have to enter a name, you can hold down on the keyboard and the letters will be spoken as your finger touches them, then you can release your finger to type the letter. To enter numbers and symbols rotate two fingers to switch between text, numbers and symbols. <span style="background-color: white;">When you have typed your text, tripple-click the home button to turn on <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/04/custom-label-ios-buttons-to-work-better.html">VoiceOver</a>. Turning on <a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2011/07/ios-voiceover-overview.html">VoiceOver</a> automatically brings up the sharing menu which gives you the option to copy, email, text and tweet your text. Fleksy does not replace the standard iOS keyboard. </span><span style="background-color: white;">I tested the app by closing my eyes while typing and found that the type was accurate and surprisingly fast. </span><a href="http://fleksy.com/" style="background-color: white;">Fleksy</a><span style="background-color: white;"> claims that users can type up to 25 words per minute with practice. Fleksy is definately faster than typing with </span><a href="http://bdmtech.blogspot.com/2012/07/kurzweil-3000-firefly-ipad-app-released.html" style="background-color: white;">VoiceOver</a><span style="background-color: white;"> and the standard keyboard for visually impaired users. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/cropped-iphone1.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="background-color: white; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="115" src="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/cropped-iphone1.jpeg" title="fleksy running on iphone" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://fleksy.com/">Fleksy</a> sells for $14.99 on the App Store. <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fleksy/id520337246?ls=1&mt=8">Click here</a> to download the app. Click read more below to view another video about <a href="http://fleksy.com/">Fleksy</a> and to view screenshots.</div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><a name="more"></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9YP5goKA4dQ?rel=0" width="420"></iframe><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Screenshot11.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Screenshot11.png" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Screenshot21.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Screenshot21.png" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Screenshot31.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://fleksy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Screenshot31.png" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>
