OmniRead

I have previously received an eye a test with OmniRead a company that specialises in 'maximising reading performance' through tailoring computer screens to the specific users needs, by conducting a series of tests measuring the size of font, screen colour calibration and many more things.


'Tint My Screen test' here   (PC ONLY) 

The TintMy Screen solution is aimed at those computer users who;
taking the Tint My Screen test
  • Wish to improve their reading comfort and efficiency off the computer.
  • Are ‘greedy readers’ and are seeking ways to improve their reading fluency off their computer.
  • Have problems with headaches, dry eyes, migraines, etc following prolonged use and are seeking ways to minimise this discomfort and derive greater pleasure from their computer.
  • Experience a reading problem and are looking for additional support.
The Solution;
  • The test we have devised is patented and based upon the logic inherent within our consultancy offering.
  • By conducting various reading tests the software determines the optimal font size, brightness levels and the background colour settings to provide a more comfortable and personalised solution to the user.

Here is a video from my own eye test with OmniRead

Take a look at this recent video, I took part in a series of tests that in OmniRead’s words are ‘geared towards enhancing reading comfort, demonstrating improved reading efficiency and improving people’s reading speed whilst reading off the computer screen.’

Assistant App

Assistant App is a great new app powered by the Nuance voice technology used for Dragon and other applications.   It allows you to organise your time by way of a calendar with all dates and events now added by voice recording. As a dyslexic it allows me to take ownership in planning my time but also means that others can set me reminders.  Hearing a voice relay the information to me is a great help. Assistant App

Visual Stress

  For many year's I thought that my reading ability, concentration and memory all related to my dyslexia.  Many years later I discovered that visual stress caused by Irlen syndrome was creating many additional issues, I began using tinted glasses and overlays and found that much of my visual stress was relieved.  Here are a few tips on relieving visual stress.   David Hillel Burns has been a practising optometrist in North London for nearly three decades, working in his own practice in Tottenham, in North Middlesex and Whittington Hospitals, and as of 2011, he is now based in East Finchley, with a new practice featuring state-of-the-art equipment - which means that he can offer you a far better and more accurate diagnosis than many of the leading optician chains! David provides advanced services, including Irlen syndrome tests.   http://www.davidhillel.co.uk/     Cerium Visual Technologies   Beneficial reports...

Cloud storage: Dropbox & SkyDrive

Take a look at this introduction to Dropbox.  We thought we should share this again as we begin the second semester of the academic year, it is more important than ever to keep our files organised and in one place.    Using Dropbox and handy applications like DropVox that go hand-in-hand will help you to keep on top of everything during the next few months.
