Reading Device For The Blind

MS can often affect vision, making it difficult to read. The Kurzweil-National Federation of the Blind Reader combines a digital camera with text-to-speech technology into a portable (less than a pound) device that can speak text from signs, letters, packaging, etc. to you. It costs around $3500, but looks worth it. Details, brochure, and video on the site.
