Introduction
Congratulations on choosing the Eye-Pal ROL.
ABiSee’s Eye-Pal ROL (hereafter referred to as ROL) is a portable electronic text-to-
speech device for people who are blind and those with visual impairment. Enjoy
reading any printed material such as letters, newspapers and books, and hear them
read aloud in a natural-sounding voice. The device is compatible with select
refreshable Braille displays that can be connected via USB to instantly convert text to
Braille. The ROL has internal speakers, and a rechargeable, user-replaceable battery.
Complete with an alarm clock and the AudioMinder
appointment reminder, the device
can also be used as a multi-tasking daily assistant. The ROL is characterized by a
contemporary design with time-tested simple controls.

The Basics
Reading Cameras
The ROL has two 5-megapixel cameras. Both cameras work simultaneously to take a
snapshot of your material. The optimal camera-viewable area is a letter/A4 paper sized
(8.5" by 11") positioned lengthwise
,
directly alongside
the front of the ROL.
Object Lighting
Both cameras automatically provide sufficient lighting when taking a snapshot. No
additional light is needed even in a dark room.
