Product Description: 

The Eye-Snap product line consists of a voice-output reading machine (text-to-speech) designed for individuals who are blind or have low vision. The device scans text or numbers on paper, including open books. Books are placed on the device's flatbed base unit and a small camera mounted on a tall pole above it reads the scanned text aloud.

This model is suitable for users who wish to read day-to-day materials and who don't require the ability to save the scanned text for later use.
