A Reading Voice

Jessie Atkin posted a blog on Digital Landing. Read about the new scanner than can read text and turn it into an mp3.

Scanners are incredible, color photos, signatures, articles, all can be duplicated. Yet, can a scanner go beyond the visual? Beyond saving a file to creating one? The answer is yes.

The Book Reader V100 is up and running and ready to create MP3 files out of the written word. It’s a simple and silent way to create your own books on tape. I can’t say anything about how nice the digital voice will be to the ears, but it’s a start. Think of the possibilities? Get me a scanner that can copy my comics into video files and then you’ll really have something :) .
