A revolutionary piece of technology has allowed a blind water skier from Northern Ireland to read a book again for the first time in over 30 years.
Former world champion Janet Gray said her life has been changed for the better thanks to the OrCam MyEye Pro.
The small device clips magnetically onto the leg of a pair of glasses and with the use of two miniature cameras, reads either digital or hard copy text to the user - all offline.
It also has a range of other features such as facial, money and product recognition.
Since retiring from water skiing, Janet has devoted her life to charity work and public life.
