This is the simplest way for blind and partially sighted people to access the RNIB Library and RNIB Newsagent services, as well as make phone calls. In Your Pocket is a voice controlled phone, streaming media player and vision assistant - designed specifically for people who are blind or have low vision.
These easy-to-use and easy-to-see fully talking smart phone and tablets can be controlled with simple gestures or voice control.
These are Android devices with additional software to access all features via a large menu system.
Developed with advice from RNIB’s Technology for Life Team, this is a clamshell feature phone with a Voice Assist feature to make it easy to stay in touch via phone calls and messages.
Voice Assist announces all the key functions, from menus and incoming numbers to phone book contacts. It also means that with one button press you know your battery level and the time of day. New messages are announced as they arrive and read out when you choose to listen.
