- Digital video magnifier with scan and read
- Unbeatable magnification on a full Windows 10 laptop

One Device – a world of learning
With SuperNova Connect & Learn, students with low vision can magnify class handouts in real time during lessons. It enables users to zoom in for detail and customise the font and background colours for the best contrast. Use one finger tap to save a picture, to add to your document and aid revision later in the day. SuperNova scans for text and reads it aloud with just one tap which means it's more comfortable for tired eyes. With Connect & Learn, students can also send text to Word documents and complete online research with magnification and speech. Completed assignment can be emailed to the teacher easily.

SuperNova Connect & Learn includes all the features and power of a video magnifier, laptop, whiteboard magnifier, tablet and book reader in one flexible package. This means schools or colleges save money and so can save funds for other essentials or use it to support more students with visual impairments.
2. Fully accessible and designed for sight loss
SuperNova Connect & Learn is designed for students with low vision by experts in assistive technology. Magnification & speech is available at every step for those choosing these options. The Dolphin Support Team is on hand to offer advice and information as needed.
3. Developing skills for higher education and employment
When learners with low vision move on from school, their Windows 10 & Microsoft Office skills equip them for higher education and future employment. The SuperNova Connect & Learn package can also connect to external monitors, keyboard, mouse, printer and other office equipment. SuperNova Connect & Learn is powered by Windows 10, so choosing this device provides opportunities for students to build skills that take them beyond education and into future employment.
3 Reasons students love SuperNova Connect & Learn
1. Maintain independence without standing out
Connect & Learn features a mainstream Microsoft Surface Pro. This device is commonly used and so users are able to maintain their privacy and discretion regarding any visual impairments. Often specialist hardware for use by people with visual impairments can be bulky or clunky - this is not the case with the Connect & Learn package.
2. Portable and lightweight – a single package that replaces five common devices
SuperNova Connect & Learn includes all the features and power of a video magnifier, laptop, tablet and book reader in one flexible package. This means there is less to carry between classes and while travelling to and from school. A sturdy backpack is included which can be used to carry your device and other school equipment.
