Orcam Read Review -Checking Out The New Orcam Read With Smart Read For The Blind And Vision Impaired

[@rollnrush]

The price is outrageous for a produce that can help so many people and do so much good.

[@losingmyfavoritegame8752]

I just saw an ad for this decided and after watching your video and hearing its responses and a few other reviews, I am very impressed.

[@r0bhumm]

Just got mine yesterday. I have just enough vision to be able to see one of the corners of the square using the outline laser pointer which is handy. However I found when outside in bright light I couldn’t see the laser at all but the device is so easy to point at the correct direction it wasn’t as much as a problem as I thought it would be. Really impressed me what is the ability to read Street signs and local notices. I feel much less expose using it then using my phone and seeing AI know I am forever grateful for that software. I think if using a Bluetooth earbuds with the organ reader you would probably not even be noticed using it in a large number of situations.

Awesome video thank you so much for sharing this with all of us

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Thanks heaps. I’m really glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching and have a great day!

[@allenxav4754]

Thank you for posting! This answered a lot of questions I had about this product

[@jannellmeagher638]

Absolutely phenomenal! What a device! Thank you so much. As always I share your videos as well. Stay healthy and Yorkie looks FABULOUS and sweet as always.

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Thanks heaps for sharing. York says hi. He’s having a sleep right now after a big walk this morning. Have a great day!

[@theblindlife]

Great video Steve!

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Thanks Sam. Just another opinion on the all cam. Yours was a great video as well. I only had a couple of days to try it out. But I have have ordered one so I will get the chance to play with it some more soon. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@thisistheaccountname]

Thank you for sharing. I've been curious about this item for awhile now.

[@driza97]

cool video. love how small and portable it is, as well as the dedicated buttons. definitely would get a case for it.

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Yes. I love it. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@LiveAccessible]

This is awesome! I've watched some of you other fun adventures and it looks like you have so much fun!!! I just love the ORCAM read. It seems like one of the best OCR readers out there. Thanks for sharing.

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

We definitely have some fun. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@lynnenicholson6968]

This is something I’m considering (well actually the My Eye as it does more than read) as the one you fix on your glasses seems more discrete than waving my phone round trying to use the Seeing A.I app (which does pretty much the same job) but the parsimonious part of me feels that free app versus £3k bit of kit is a bit steep.

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

That my eyeto is great as well. Whatever works for you. Definitely make sure you try before you buy. Cheers!

[@joaquinkendrick8588]

you all probably dont care but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly lost the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me!

[@markwalters1111]

Still happy with your OrCam Read Steve. I have the OrCam MyEye 2 and hoping to upgrade to the Pro in the new year. Just waiting to receive my OrCam Read. Will be good to play around with the Smart Reading feature.

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Yes I’m still happy with it. It’s not perfect. But it’s pretty good most of the time. Very handy thing to have. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@markwalters1111]

Oh that’s great. Yes it is trial and error and I think for those of us who are totally blind it’s a learned skill to position any kind of camera in mid air to capture text at least 30cm or 12 inches away from you. I am still developing this skill 3 years in with the OrCam MyEye 2.

[@kindablindmom3125]

I have the my eye 2 and it is awesome!

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

It is fantastic technology. I'm really glad you like it. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.

[@MarcCardwell]

Is the My Eye device an older tech they made? I'm trying to figure out the difference between their products, what makes some of them more expensive, etc.

[@YoungBlaze]

Interesting price but i think this should have cost 599 to be really worth it vs the 1200 price ive seen, because i can see a cell phone replacing this soon

[@dustinmichelle6928]

They already make an app that does the same thing

[@rollnrush]

I hope so. The price is outrageous for a produce that can help so many people and do so much good.

[@evanitystartv]

Very informative video. Thanks for the post my friend. How to see you around my new friend

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Thanks. I’m really glad you found it informative. Have a great day!

[@earhustler2639]

I saw the prices on both the OrCam Reader and the OrCam MyEye… Seeing AI it is. $!$! 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵 It looks like a great product! I would really like to have it, but it’s not in my price range right now.

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

The price is crazy high. Hopefully they will come down over time. All the best.

[@hz7qnf]

Looks like a good product but the MINIMUM device investment is $1900 from their website with the top end device going for $3500. Why does everyone shy away from mentioning the price??

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

It’s definitely not cheap. I didn’t mention the price because it depends on where you are in the world. The price differs markedly depending on your location. Depending on your location different governments have programs that help people buy them as well. So it’s a bit complicated. If you were going to buy one. I would suggest getting a demonstration first. Using it for yourself and see if it’s going to work for you. It’s certainly a large investment. Hope you like the video. Have a great day!

I travel to the Philippines a lot

[@ookipuki]

Wow!!!! O.O awsome !

[@LowVisionUKTerrysView]

Hi Steve, great video, as always. I have the orcas my eye 2.0. I dont use it as often as I should/could, but it really is a great piece of kit. Im with you on the case issue, I thought there would have been something. So, when I go out and take that with me, I just pop it around my neck with the lanyard, as I wouldn't feel comfortable , as you say throwing it just in a bag. Extremely pricey - but I think overall is worth it for what it does. I hope all is good with you and your family Terry

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

I think I might try to adapt a glasses case. I hope you and Spencer are staying safe and going ok. Have a great weekend. Cheers!

[@lynnenicholson6968]

Hi Terry. Why don’t you use it as often as you could? Is it because you find it awkward? I’m considering getting the one you pop on your specs as I don’t want to have to mess around picking something up and putting it away like I currently do with my phone when I’m using the Seeing A I app. It’s not top priority yet (a new oven certainly would be higher on my list as my current one is could do with replacing with a talking one to make my life easier).

[@LowVisionUKTerrysView]

@@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350 thats a great idea re the glasses case. I have just been looking at mine and it actually fits quite nicely into a soft case that is currently for a monocular that the low vision clinic gave me last year. So i may start using that. We are good thank you - still getting- but safely x out and about

[@LowVisionUKTerrysView]

@@lynnenicholson6968 hi Lynne. Thats the one I have that fits snugly to glasses. The plain glass ones it comes with are ok actually, although I have the little magnet attachments to a few pairs of my eyeshield glasses too. The battery life isnt great at all - but thats easily remedied as you can charge it using a mobile phone power pack too. To be honest, i just keep forgetting to take it with me. But it is great for shopping etc not so good in dim Light, although it has a very bright light that you can turn on - but again that eats up the battery, and in a restaurant i feel quite embarrassed when suddenly this hugely bright light flashes on because its too dark for it to see the menu. People look up thinking im taking photos :-)

[@lynnenicholson6968]

@@LowVisionUKTerrysView thank you for letting me know. Helps me to make a decision

[@Sasha-16june]

What a great product, thanks for the review. Where is this purchased through, Vision Australia?

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

Yes Vision Australia can help you with this one. Really glad you found it helpful. Cheers!

[@Charlie-xm6dg]

Looks good. I have a family member going blind. What do you think about the Orcam? Did you get a good payment plan?

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

I really do like the all cam. It takes a bit of practice to get used to it. Lining up the documents with your orcam. So definitely recommend trying before you buy. I’m not sure that they do offer a payment plan. Not sure about that. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@raymckinnon3563]

What about other languages

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

I’m not sure about other languages. It’s not something I have looked into. Sorry I can’t help.

[@dfg297lpopdirk]

how much does it cost.and can it translate an italian menu to english

[@darkmatter5016]

They have such an annoying website. You have to fill out all of your information just to get a price.

[@malghamdi5054]

How much does it cost?

[@jeffwoods4684]

An arm and a leg unless you buy one used, then it is about an arm and two toes.

[@Yourballix]

Is this a paid review

[@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350]

No, it’s not a paid review. But I would highly recommend testing the all cam before buying. It does take time to see if it works for you. And it is definitely a large investment. It also depends on what you are trying to read with it. It can take practice to make it work the way you want to. Especially if like me, you have very little vision. All the best. And thanks for watching the video. Have a great day!

[@Yourballix]

@@stevefoxyorktheguidedog4350 thank you Steve I enjoyed the review. I always like to make sure reviews are genuine and not paid for by the product
