  • We all know the usual problem in using a cctv or a hand held digital magnifier. As these devices work on lcd/led/crt technology so if they are used for a long period of time for reading a book or something then they cause headches and strain . So i was exploring the new Amazon kindle ebook reader which uses Eink technology for its display . This display causes no strain to eyes and is equavalent to reading an actual paper . So i was wondering why doesnt a company manufactures device similar to digital magnifier but having an Eink display instead of the usual LED/LCD/CRT display . This device will be very useful for visually impaired as it would enable a person to magnify the things just like what a cctv or digital magnifier does and would display the magnified things on the eink screen for strain free viewing. If you know any low vision aid manufacturar then do take the initiative to pass on this idea to him/her .
