Help your child access every story on the shelf. BookSprite reads physical childrenβs books aloud, helping young readers follow the story as they turn each page. Position your iPhone above an open book, let the camera see the printed pages, and listen as BookSprite recognizes and narrates the story. HOW IT WORKS β’ Set up: Position your phone above the open book so the camera can see both pages. β’ Turn the page: BookSprite detects the change and recognizes the new words. β’ Listen: Keep your hands on the book and follow the narration together. FOR YOUNG READERS β’ Hear the varied words and sentence structures found in books. β’ Enjoy physical books independently when an adult is not available to read aloud. β’ Follow stories while still learning to read or when printed words are difficult to decode. β’ Choose automatic page detection or manually scan a page. BookSprite complements shared readingβit does not replace it. Any physical childrenβs book with clear, legible printed text can work.
