Overview: An easy to use currency identification app that offers a software alternative to carrying a dedicated device such as the iBill. Open the app and the phone’s camera scans continuously to identify a bill, with no photo required. Results are delivered by speech, beeps, and vibration. The vibration patterns are especially useful for DeafBlind users, though each denomination’s pattern must be learned.
