See More, Do More with a Portable Magnifier That Speaks When You Need It

Clear Vision When It Matters Most

The RUBY® 10 portable magnifier with text-to-speech is more than a visual aid—it’s a thoughtfully designed tool that adapts to the way people actually live. With a generous 10-inch touchscreen, intuitive controls, and built-in speech, this device empowers users to read printed materials comfortably whether they are reviewing mail at the kitchen table, following a recipe, studying in class, or navigating documents at work.

Unlike smaller handheld devices that require constant repositioning, the RUBY® 10 provides a stable, immersive viewing experience while remaining easy to carry between rooms or locations. High-definition magnification reveals fine details with sharp contrast, while customizable color modes reduce eye fatigue and support long reading sessions.

Text-to-Speech That Reduces Visual Fatigue

Listen When Your Eyes Need a Break

One of the most impactful features of this portable magnifier is its integrated text-to-speech functionality. With the touch of a button, printed text is converted into clear, natural-sounding speech, allowing users to listen instead of strain. This seamless transition between viewing and listening helps preserve energy, extend reading time, and support individuals whose vision fluctuates throughout the day.

The RUBY® 10 is designed with accessibility at its core—simple menus, responsive touch controls, and a layout that makes learning the device feel approachable rather than overwhelming. Every feature is intentional, supporting independence while respecting the user’s comfort and confidence.

How will this product change your life?

The RUBY® 10 portable magnifier changes daily routines by removing the constant barriers that printed text can create. Instead of avoiding mail, relying on others to read labels, or struggling through documents, users gain the freedom to access information on their own terms. Magnification delivers clarity, while text-to-speech offers relief when eyes become tired or overwhelmed.

What makes this device different is how seamlessly it blends visual and auditory access. Users are not forced to choose between reading or listening—they can switch effortlessly, creating a more sustainable and empowering experience. Over time, this flexibility restores confidence, supports independence, and helps people stay connected to the activities that matter most.

"Working with NELVB has been a truly positive experience. I first connected with Scott over a decade ago to support one of my students, and his involvement made a lasting impact on both the student and their family. Since then, he’s continued to provide valuable support through demos and programs. It’s always been about what’s best for the kids, and that’s what matters most to me."

"Thank you again for an excellent visit yesterday. My dad and I appreciated the time you spent with us, your thorough explanations of the various options and of the Stella lamp. I could tell that he was extremely pleased at the thought of being able to once again manage his piles of papers. My hope is with that victory and order, he’ll feel empowered and ready to tackle some other matters in his life."
