“Hear the World from a Different Perspective”

CapturaTalk will help you to capture essential information and understand text. Importantly, this is a simple solution that can be of enormous benefit for those who struggle with reading, have dyslexia or are partially sighted. It is also useful for anyone learning the English language.

"CapturaTalk is a very exciting product that could revolutionise accessing printed information for so many people ... I can see many benefits for its use both in and out of education ... " Wesley C, Additional Support Tutor

The CapturaTalk software is pre-installed on TyTN Pocket PC Smartphones in the form of a micro SD (secure digital) memory card, which means it is a highly portable tool that can fit in your pocket and be on hand just when you need it.

If you dread the thought of learning new software, you'll be pleased to find out that CapturaTalk has an uncluttered screen with large icons that make sense.

This really is a convenient solution that you can get started with straight away.

The CapturaTalk software enables you to:

  • Take a photograph of text and hear this read aloud via easy icon features (will also read from text in different coloured fonts).
  • Select text from an electronic document or email stored on your smartphone to hear it read aloud.
  • Listen only to the information that is relevant to you, by selecting and ‘cropping’ from a photograph or electronic document.
  • Use the media player menu to Play, Replay, Pause and Stop the text-to-speech functions.
  • Use the Magnifier Device to magnify text up to 4 times.
  • Mobile Phone - use the device as a mobile phone by simply inserting a SIM card from your chosen network provider.

The CapturaTalk software solution combines proven leading technology to deliver the following quality features:

Scan and recognise text using Abbyy OCR.

Abbyy has developed accurate and reliable OCR functionality. It is used in CapturaTalk to convert the image into an editable file.

Deliver text-to-speech with natural-sounding voices by Acapela.

The high quality Acapela voices have been specifically designed for mobile devices and deliver a good response time with a more natural sound and English speaking voice.
