Adult illiteracy can be challenging to overcome due to social stigmas, but the abcDARIAN device is designed to help adults through the hard times.
The abcDARIAN is a transparent, two-sided and touch-enabled device. A simple skim over text will make it phonetically read out the words into an earpiece. It also comes with a stylus and has the ability to slow down speech feedback, just in case it’s reading too fast for one to grasp the reading. The abcDARIAN is a great little discreet learning tool that doesn't embarrass illiterate adults.
