A HIGHER DIMENSION
OF READING.
Reading faster, deeper, and more focused.
That’s Bionic Reading.
A HIGHER DIMENSION
FOCUSED READING.
NATURALLY.
Bionic Reading is a new method facilitating the reading process by guiding the eyes through text with artificial fixation points. As a result, the reader is only focusing on the highlighted initial letters and let’s the brain center complete the word. In a digital world dominated by shallow forms of reading, Bionic Reading aims to encourage a more in-depth reading and understanding of written content.
Visual word recognition
eye movements
and reading speed
Our visual perception is performed by fixations. During a fixation the eyes are maintaining their gaze on a single spot for about 0.3 seconds before jumping to the next fixation point. In the fixation phase the eyes perceive high resolution details. To fully interpret scenes and surroundings, our eyes need to move and scan our environment. In doing so, we quickly jump from one fixation to another. During those fast movements our eyes are not capable of perceiving any visual input. The impression of seeing is upheld by peripheral vision and stored visuals.
