The Snow Pad is a highly portable electronic magnifier that uses your own iPad as a screen. Ideal for classroom use where students need to see the teacher and the whiteboard, whilst also working with documents, the Snow Pad folds up easily for transportation in a neat backpack.
Note: iPad not supplied - Snow Pad is a BYO solution for people already owning an iOS or Android tablet (not Windows)
The Snow Pad app can split the view so that you can see both whiteboard and your coursework book at the same time, for example for copying off the whiteboard. Using the discreet Distance camera, students can view and magnify objects over 5 meters away up to 32 times.
You can also view paperwork and textbooks placed under the iPad, which is magnetically supported by the Snow Pad frame. In addition to magnifying these documents, you can also re-flow them (convert to large print word-wrapped to the window width) and instantly OCR the text with speech output (TTS).
Ideal for primary school students with low vision needing a lightweight flexible and transportable electronic magnifier, fully integrated with their other iPad apps.
Intuitive large button user interface
Easy to learn, using familiar iPad symbols and gestures
The Snow Pad will also be a good option for older people at home, especially if space is an issue.
Snow Pad has a long battery life, so you can move it easily from the kitchen bench to a small overchair table in the living room, to the dining room table and pack it away when not required. You can also switch to the self-facing camera on your iPad to do makeup or check your clothing.
