Scroll Down for More Links Scan N Talk accesses links in the text like www.colligo.us and e-mail addresses like Info@Colligo.us with a click of the mouse. With simple keyboard commands you can hear your email or have a web page read to you. Plus the built in screen reader will read all other files even PDF. Simply place your printed document on the scanner, push one button and in 20 seconds or less, you can both listen to and see the document in large type on your monitor. Our Optical Character Recognition (OCR) program changes the images into text characters. Colligo's Text To Speech (TTS) platform then converts the words and punctuation into the spoken word. The scanner, OCR and TTS are similar to a copying machine, a photocopier with a voice! Once listened to, you can now save that reading for later use, print it out in large type or even in Braille.
Scan N Talk, with or out the scanner, allows the visually impaired to have access to the printed word, allows those with dyslexia to greatly improve word recognition, improves reading capabilities for the poor reader and those with learning disabilities. And for those learning a new language associates the printed word with the spoken sound. For further information and pricing call 360 647-3404. 10/04
