Battery Considerations
Battery is too low. Shutting down, please wait.
The battery is too low to enable operation. Connect the charger to the device.
When sufficiently recharged, power on the device.
If the OrCam device has been unused for five days or longer, the battery level
messages may become inaccurate. In the event that the device does not hold a
charge, plug it in and charge it for eight hours without interruption. If this does
not solve the problem, please contact OrCam support.
Reading
As the OrCam device is reading, you may encounter some of the following
messages:
Text is too small. Try to hold it closer.
Heard when the image contains text but the OrCam device cannot recognize it. This
may occur in the middle of a document
.
Text seems blurry. Please hold it steady and try again.
Heard when OrCam cannot understand the text due to camera or item movement
during image capture
.
Can't read text, please try again in a brighter area.
Heard when OrCam cannot understand the text due to low light
.
You may encounter an announcement from the OrCam device saying “Text seems
blurry”. This may occur for several reasons:
1.
You may be holding the book at an angle that makes it difficult to read
the text.
2.
You may have moved your head or the document while the OrCam
device was taking a picture of the text. An easy solution is to use a book
holder. You may find it more comfortable and it may make it easier to
keep the text steady.
