Show HN: Vision – Check your Sight online
- grigio 12y agoIt's beta, and you need a credit card size card to calibrate your screen. NO Registration is needed
- rompic 12y agomaybe it's better to use "business card" in this context. I thought I have to pay for it, when I first read the instructions.
- grigio 12y agoI don't know where you live, but here nowdays all the business cards have different sizes :) No, it's just for calibration. Maybe I could add also "ATM card"
- rompic 12y agothe german translation is quite off Ihr Sehvermögen ist wichtig. Mit Vision können Sie ihre Augen überprüfen und trainieren. Scannen Sie >>den<< QRCode mit dem Smartphone >>Entfernen Sie sich << 4 Meter vom Bildschirm und schon sind Sie bereit, Ihren Sehtest zu starten. (not quite sure about the last one, as the english translation is hard to understand as well) Kontakt & Feedback Save Punktezahl --> Punkte speichern ...
- grigio 12y agoThanks a lot, I translated the app with Google Translate because there are several german visitors. I'll fix that!
- rompic 12y agoPassen Sie die Anzahl den Schieberegler unten, sollte nur der schwarze Rand außerhalb der Karte sichtbar sein --> Passen Sie den Schiebregler so an, dass nur mehr der schwarze Rand der Karte sichtbar ist. Sie haben noch nichts auf dem Bildschirm ein Standard-Karte oder Kreditkarte --> Halten Sie hier eine Visitenkarte oder Kreditkarte an den Bildschirm (Replaced Standardkarte with Visitenkarte=Businesscard) Scannen Sie den QRcode, um den Sehtest durchzuführen und entfernen Sie sich 4 Meter vom Bildschirm. Sie können dafür den App Barcode Scanner (Android) oder Qrafter (iOS) verwenden. Als Alternative kann eine andere Person mit Hilfe dieses Links, die Fragen für Sie beantworten. ----- It's not perfect, but better than what you have atm ;)
- grigio 12y agoThanks a lot for the translation review :) I've updated the german translation, where the strings aren't hardcoded
- motyar 12y agoI love the way this app works. what other goals can be achieved using this same technique? 1. Remote control ( like youtube) 2. Check your sight. ( this app) 3. Game controler 4. ??? ????
- grigio 12y agoYou can transform yor smartphone in a custom remote control, which can also be shared among different devices
- PhantomGremlin 12y agoSigh. Completely blank without enabling JavaScript. I don't necessarily expect the online sight check to function, but I do expect something to appear on the web page. With all the crap and malware out there, and all the random security flaws in browsers, I always use NoScript when visiting new sites. Then it's up to the site to convince me to enable JavaScript. But a blank page will rarely be very convincing. Yes, I know I'm an outlier when compared to the general public. But, after all, this is a nerd site. I'm sure quite a number of HNers browse w/o JavaScript. Throw us a bone. Give us something to read. Perhaps a general explanation of what you're doing?
- grigio 12y agoI know, but it is a realtime webapp.. without javascript it is pretty useless. Vision, will allow to test your sight interacting with the screen via smartphone.. is better than you try it by yourself, it is also NO Registration required.
