The Magnifier app offers many helpful features to assist users in their day-to-day lives, and most of them don’t require a LiDAR sensor. For example, if you come across text that is not legible, the Magnifier app can apply filters, add more light from the LED flash, and adjust brightness and contrast levels to make the text readable. You can even save the frame locally for future reference.
Then there is People Detection, which lets you keep a safe distance from people around you, especially in scenarios with external risks like contagious diseases or other such proximity-related risks. The Magnifier also has a door detect feature that recognizes doors and tells users how far they are reaching them.
In the same vein as Point and Speak, the Magnifier app also offers an image recognition feature that lets you scan the world around you and get the objects recognized with text and audio descriptions. Think of it like Google Lens, but geared towards assisting people with accessibility needs.
