Visually Impaired IT

Hi All, 

We are being pushed into having of the below for a visually impaired pupil. So far, I have managed to push back on solely Android and tablet based methods in favour of Chrome OS tablets with android apps being available. This is much better for us in terms of management and safeguarding (as we also use GoGuardian - which is only on Chrome )

I am wondering what others think of the product? For example, I looked up the smart camera lens stated on here and it does not seem it is stocked anywhere or being produced anymore? Also - the price seems very steep. In my opinion. As always, appreciate everyone's thoughts on this.

Sounds like a great package for a student with such needs, but as you say, the price... ouch.

You could most likely pick up the separate (comparable) parts for much less, and what you'd be missing is the software = app.
