Vision Store Product Minute: Arkon Smart Phone desktop Stan   One of the main ways I can tell if a product I use is amazingly amazing, is if I keep using it over a number of years.   The Arkon Smart phone Desktop Stand is one of these. I can put my smart phone at a range of heights, and positions depending on whether I am on a video call, demonstrating a product online, videoing a product demo or using the smart phone camera to do various things like OCR, this stand delivers what I need.   https://shop.visionaustralia.org/shop-by-eye-condition/diabetic-retinopathy/arkon-table-stand-for-phones.html   Smart AI Apps for use with Smart Phone Camera   Both for Android and iOS   Be-My-Eyes AI Assistant, Envision AI, Seeing AI   Camera for iOS gives scene info. Oddly, the Camera app on Android doesn’t have scene info.   Android   Look Out.   Blind Shell Classic 2   Envision AI. Look Out.   IOS   iOS 18 VoiceOver Live Recognition: door detection, people, point and speak, text,  Obstacle Detecter app for checking distance of objects.   Summing Up   Challenge in using all of these solutions for smart phone, is using the device hands free, and still being able to control the apps. Possible solutions: chest harness to hold phone in portrait mode, head set with mic for iOS voice control/listen to app, and a small keyboard that could be used with one hand: i.e. RIVO keyboard.  Support this Vision Australia Radio program: https://www.visionaustralia.org/donate?src=radio&type=0&_ga=2.182040610.46191917.1644183916-1718358749.1627963141See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
