Reading Pen - Oxford Dictionary Touch Screen
Welcome to the new Oxford TS (Touch Screen) Reading Pen. This new reading pen, like the standard Oxford Dictionary Reading Pen, is completely portable. It reads words and definitions aloud, giving users the independence to read on their own. This pen comes with a stylus and a touch screen, so as well as being able to scan words in, users can also enter them directly onto the pen's screen.
In addition to being able to scan and read single words, the Oxford TS Reading Pen can scan full lines of text. Definitions of the scanned text are displayed on the pen’s LCD screen. Scanned text and definitions may also be read aloud by the pen in a British accent, using Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology though the pen’s built-in speaker, or in private with the supplied earphones.
