DIGIT-EYES AUDIO LABELING SYSTEM ADVANCES INDEPENDENCE FOR 
VISUALLY

IMPAIRED Digital Miracles, LLC, is pleased to announce a major

advancement in assistive technology for people who are blind and

visually impaired.  The Digit-Eyes Audio Labeling System has been 
approved
for sale on the Apple Apps Store.  As of June

23rd, the millions

of people worldwide with substantial vision loss can begin

downloading the iPhone

application to recognize and label the important items in their 
lives.

Reasonably priced at $29.99, the Digit-Eyes phone app is a 
powerful

tool that fits

into any budget and life- style, turning challenging tasks into

easy, safe activities.

The Digit-Eyes system gives users a simple way to make custom

labels for everyday

items and it identifies packaged goods-joining advanced software

with the iPhone,

the Internet, home computers, printers, and inexpensive

off-the-shelf labels.  People

of almost any visual ability can now put groceries away and grab

the right prescription

bottle independently.

"This is the most exciting product I've worked on," says Nancy

Miracle, president

of Digital Miracles and software engineer with 40 years 
experience.

"The limited

functions and high cost of existing assistive devices just seemed

wrong, so our objective

was to develop a product that performed better than any 
comparable

technology and

offer it at about 10% of the price.  Combining the need for

identification with a

natural, powerful and robust tool like the iPhone made the 
project

irresistible."

With Digit-Eyes, users can print custom text labels or record 
audio

labels that they

make by scanning specially coded labels and speaking into their

phones.  They attach

the labels to household items, and the messages are played back

whenever the codes

are rescanned with their iPhones.  This Digit-Eyes app can also 
scan

manufacturer

codes (UPC, EAN, ISBN) and say what's inside the package after

checking the vast

Digit-Eyes product database.  Each iPhone stores over five 
hundred

hours of information

and can be used just about anywhere.

"This product is amazing! By labeling leftovers with their 
contents

and date refrigerated,

I can determine if my dinner will be edible or not.  Next, I'll 
be

labeling my jungle

of AC adapters so I'll never again have to guess what they all go

to.  The ease of

use and flexibility of the process make it an invaluable tool!"

Randy Builder, Seattle, Washington.

The first public display of Digit-Eyes is at the National

Federation of the Blind

convention in Dallas, Texas, July 4 - 7, booth B113.  The exhibit

then moves to the

American Council of the Blind convention July 10 - 15 in Phoenix,

Arizona, booth

#41.  Attendees can experience the use and capability of the 
system

with hands-on

demonstrations.  Details, explanations, and examples will be

available at both conventions,

or immediately on-line at

 <outbind://3/www.DIGIT-EYES.com> www.DIGIT-EYES.com.

Digital Miracles, LLC, the parent company of Digit-Eyes, is a

Texas-based corporation

that develops customized software solutions.  The Digit-Eyes 
Audio

Labeling System

was created by a team of engineers, software designers and 
members

of the visually

impaired community.
