TAG Reading System, the new learn-to-read device from LeapFrog
[DEMO 08] Leapfrog is coming at DEMO with its new reading system, the Tag Reading System. This pen-shaped device interacts directly with real books: by simply touching the Tag reader anywhere on any page of a specially printed book, children can hear words and stories read aloud.
The Leapfrog Connect Application (PC/Mac) allows users to download and manage audio for each book, and with 16 MB build-in flash memory, the Tag Reader holds up to five books.
An infrared camera placed in the tip of the Tag reader reads dotted media and works as an imaging system to recognize letters, words and symbols printed with micro-dots. This technology seems similar to the one used in the more advanced Pulse SmartPen also launching today at DEMO.
The Tag Reading System will be available this summer 2008 for $49.99, Tag books and Activity books will be $13.99 each. We have seen a similar device at CES from the Chinese manufacturer Aigo. Learn more on the Tag reader website leapfrog.com/tag. This article will be updated with the link to the demonstration video in the next few days.
