The document summarizes the key features and functions of the Intel Reader, a handheld device that uses optical character recognition and text-to-speech to convert printed text into audio. It can capture text using its camera, store and manage files, import/export common file formats, and create audio MP3 files. It has a portable design smaller than a laptop and can also be used with an Intel Portable Capture Station to scan multiple pages at once. An example use case is provided of a student with dyslexia who benefited from using the Intel Reader to independently access classroom texts.
