Questions and Answers for prospective users:

• How long will it take me to learn how to use OrCam? OrCam is designed to be intuitive. Operating is done by pointing. It takes only a few minutes to learn how to use it properly, and less than an hour to master.
• Can I use OrCam with my own glasses? We understand that eyeglasses are important and unique; they are a part of your look and not just a visual aid. Hence, OrCam was designed to be mounted on your existing eyeglass frames. Almost all types are appropriate, including sunglasses.
• Can I receive subsidization from insurance companies or the government? If you are a Veteran, you may be eligible to receive an OrCam device through Veterans Affairs. Ortherwise, the government and private insurance currently do not support assistive technology.
• Can I use OrCam if I'm hard of hearing? OrCam uses sound to convey information, so persons who are deaf cannot use it. However, it works well with hearing aids. The earpiece is on the right side, but you can connect your own headphones if you can only hear out of the left ear or require special aids.
• What languages does OrCam support? English, Spanish, German, Italian, Dutch, French, Hebrew, Danish, Polish Norwegian, Portuguese, Romanian, Finnish, Swedish, Czech, Turkish, Hungarian, Russian, Bulgarian, Mandarin, and Japanese.
• Does OrCam work in the dark? The OrCam has a flash camera installed for dimly-lit environments.
