Did you know? There is approximately 1.3 billion visually impair people on Earth according to the World Health Organisation. To cater to their needs in this growing usage of mobile smartphones, HONOR is introducing PocketVision app to create an enhanced reading experience for the community.
So how does this work? Well, with the help of HONOR's HiAI (artificial intelligence) and developed by Eyecoming, PocketVision has three modes that will help the visually impaired to read more clearly:
- Text-to-Speech Mode is powered by HONOR HiAI and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, this mode helps to convert pictures to text faster and more accurately. It then narrates the text from books, documents, menus and more with ease
- Zoom-In Mode leverages the HONOR 20 and HONOR 20 Pro’s 48MP quad-camera lens and 8MP telephoto lens for ultra-clarity, this mode allows users to zoom into text using the volume buttons on their device, making even the smallest type larger, less blurry and more legible
- Negative Image Mode provides a range of colour filters to enhance the text, this mode improves the contrast of printed materials for people who struggle to see certain colours
From the description above, it seems to imply that PocketVision app is only available on the HONOR 20 and HONOR 20 Pro. But it should be applicable on other HONOR (and Huawei) devices since it can be downloaded for free at the AppGallery. The app supports English, Portuguese, German, Spanish, Italian and Mandarin.
