1. Introduction

IRISPenTM Air 7 is a Smart wireless pen scanner that allows you to scan lines of text to the IRISPenTM

app on your iOS device. In the app the scans can be edited, translated, read out loud and shared

through your favorite Cloud accounts.

Thanks to I.R.I.S.' OCR technology (Optical Character Recognition) IRISPenTM Air 7 recognizes 130

languages in Online mode. When using the IRISPenTM in Offline mode, 45 languages are supported.

You can also have the application automatically translate the scanned text and read it out loud.
