OCR/TEXT-TO SPEECH MODE
Using the OCR
The Davinci provides users with the ability to scan a document placed
underneath the camera and read it aloud. OCR/Text-to-Speech is only
available in Desktop Mode and when the DaVinci Control Console is
plugged in. While in Desktop Mode, place the document under the
DaVinci camera as straight as possible.
- If the document contains multiple columns, place the desired column in
the middle of the screen. Using the
“Column Marker” will help in locating
the column the DaVinci will read aloud (see page 22)
- Turning the
“Deskew” option on will allow for a larger margin of error for
a document that is not perfectly straight. (see page 28)
1. Press the [Capture] button on the DaVinci Control Console.
- This will take a snapshot of the document and process it for OCR.
2. After the DaVinci has completed the processing step it will begin to read
the document aloud.
3. To exit OCR/Text-to-speech Mode back to Desktop Mode, press
the [Capture] button on the DaVinci Control Console.
