Quicktionary Reading Pen III

The Reading Pen II is designed for people with reading or learning disabilities, such as dyslexia.

The built-in voice gives immediate word for word or pronunciation of a single word, or line of text for you all at the touch of a button. Voice on all Quicktionary II Pens is in English only, and you hear the word(s) spoken in English only when you scan English text.

Quicktionary II recognizes over 300,000 words and expressions and offers numerous language combinations. It reads a wide range of printed fonts and sizes, including inverted and hyphenated text. It even includes an OptiCard for entering words that you can’t scan, such as street signs. Quicktionary II can be set for convenient left- or right-handed use and is designed to fit in your pocket; at only 3 ounces, it is much lighter than regular dictionaries.

This Pen is a completely portable self-contained device and does not require a computer.
