I saw this on my breakfast cereal box (in the US) and looked it up. A company called Navilens made this to help visually impaired people with things like street signs, etc... neat!

EDIT TO ADD: Haha, I forgot I am on lemmy so we're discussing the technology and licensing issues, instead of focusing on how this might improve the lives of visually impaired people.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
