Yes, you take a picture, but it is surprisingly quick compared to some apps.
For things like digital displays, I have a thermostat that is about 3 inches by 
4 inches and I held the camera about 5 or 6 inches from it and it worked very 
well.
The clocks I have tried it on I was a bit further away and it got it on the 
first or in one case, second try.
If you are two close, it will tell you it looks like a close up of a clock.
I have not tried it on a page of text, but it did very well on a box.

Again, it is very new and they want feedback to figure out what they need to 
improve and what is working.

Ok, thanks. I'd just heard of envision AI while browsing email this
morning, and will give it a spin. Does envision AI analyze in
realtime? or, are you required to take a picture as you would with say
say, tap tap see?

Thanks,
Shermeen
