Abstract: Vision assistive device and user interface are disclosed. In some embodiments, a vision assistive device includes a housing having a base for positioning the housing on a surface; one or more imaging units disposed along a top portion of the housing, each imaging unit being angled downward so a central axis of the imaging unit forms an acute angle with the surface so the imaging unit captures a target image from a target object; and a control system accommodated within the housing, the control system being connected to the one or more imaging units to process the target image captured by each imaging unit and to output the target image to a user.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable media for processing an image are disclosed. The system comprises a processor, an image capturing unit in communication with the processor, an inspection surface positioned so that at least a portion of the inspection surface is within a field of view (FOV) of the image capturing unit, and an output device. The system has software that monitors the FOV of the image capturing unit for at least one event. The inspection surface is capable of supporting an object of interest.

Abstract: An electronic device is described that assists blind and/or low vision users in magnifying and reading printed text, fast book scanning and printing magnified images of said text. The device can also produce audio output that allows listening to the text being pronounced.
