What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 16, 2026
This wireless keypad is an add-on accessory for the LyriQ OCR reader — a dedicated text-to-speech scanning device for people with vision loss or print disabilities. It snaps onto the back of the LyriQ and adds physical navigation buttons that let users move through scanned text character by character, word by word, by sentence, or by paragraph, which is useful for anyone who wants more precise control than the base unit's interface provides. This is not a standalone product — it only works with the LyriQ reader, which must be purchased separately. If you're considering this for someone who needs fine-grained navigation through documents (for example, a student reviewing a textbook or someone checking correspondence closely), the keypad can make that process more deliberate, but the LyriQ itself is the larger investment to evaluate first.
