Narration:
For 30 years, Dolphin has been providing the best in-class accessibility solutions, to people who are blind and visually impaired.
During that time, we found our technologies can benefit so many others, with physical disabilities, students with dyslexia, businesses and schools; who need to provide materials in alternative, accessible formats.

Dolphin delivers those type of quality solutions, as well as unparalleled service and support.

Connect and Learn is the complete accessibility package for students with low vision; providing everything they need to access the curriculum, from the classroom or from home.

It replaces several accommodations schools purchase individually, including a digital magnifier, a Windows 10 Surface Pro laptop, touchscreen magnification, a whiteboard magnifier, an accessible book reader and a foldable lightweight stand; saving the district thousands.

Dolphin’s FREE Easy Reader app, for Android and iOS devices, enables students to directly connect to the world’s most popular accessible libraries, such as Bookshare, CELA and RNIB.

Teachers can assign books for students to download, and read books and texts with all of the supports they need to be successful.
Dolphin also helps school districts and enterprise organizations, to convert text materials into alternate accessible formats, with EasyConverter and EasyConverter Express.
