What is LynxSight

overcome their daily hardships. It provides an offline OCR (optical character
recognition) services with reading recognized text. Application was designed with effort
to be easily navigable and usable for visually impaired people. LynxSight uses voice

find textual information but have difficulties to read it would, as we hope, profit from
this application.
