Poet Compact 2 and Poet Compact 2+
(discontinued, service only)

Perfect text-to-speech reading of printed documents

When designing the Poet Compact 2/2+, we focused entirely on its main function: reading aloud. This slender device captures printed text and reads it instantly — at the press of a button. The compact device in its solid housing speaks the recognised text clearly and audibly. The stereo loudspeakers, directed towards the listener, ensure clear sound. The control buttons in tactile shapes are equipped with sensible pressing feedback and touch tones. You'll master the operation on your very first try — give it a go!

Poet Compact 2

In its standard configuration with just two control buttons, the reading machine scans the inserted document at the first button press and reads it aloud immediately. The second button press pauses the voice whenever you need a break. And what are the two rotary controls for? You set the reading speed and volume individually. 2 buttons and 2 dials — what more do you need? For those who want more, the extended control panel of the Poet Compact 2+ offers all the options: menu functions, language settings, additional programmes, CD drive, USB slot.

Poet Compact 2+

The extended control panel of the Poet Compact 2+ offers many possibilities: menu functions, language settings, additional programmes, CD drive, USB slot. The 3 control buttons give you direct access to standard functions. Two rotary controls let you set reading speed and volume individually. The first button press scans the inserted document and reads it aloud immediately. The second button press pauses the voice whenever you need a break — it couldn't be more intuitive.
