Description

Welcome back all you Tech Connecters! Cory and Luke are excited to showcase a new wearable electronic magnifier called the Vision Buddy Mini! We have covered Vision Buddy in previous videos but now they are back with a vengeance! Its slimmer than ever, and is jam packed with loads of great features that we are going to demonstrate today!

Specifically, your favorite Assistive Technology Specialists will walk you through how to use the Vision Buddy Mini's various features such as: Magnification, Reading, OCR, Television, Computer, and CCTV Camera Mode. If you have any questions please post them in the comments below!

If you are interested in older Vision Buddy devices, we recommend watching these previous videos we made covering those devices.

We have two corrections we would like to include from Vision Buddy:

Firstly, the headset is a custom design with their own hardware and operating system.

And second, you can launch voice commands by pressing the zoom-in button for two seconds until you hear a ding. After that, simply say the command. Using voice commands, you can customize each mode.

For example, in Reading Mode you can change filters, and in TV Mode you can adjust video settings. You can also change volume, brightness, and contrast in each mode using voice commands. Voice commands may take a few tries to get used to your voice, but they should work smoothly once calibrated.

Vision Forward's Tech Connect continues to bring you the information you need to make the most out of your devices. Our experts know there are many factors to consider, so if you have any follow up questions please post them in the comments and we will help you find the assistive tech that's best for you.
