About the Project

The Bionic Text Converter is a user-friendly tool that extracts text from PDF, TXT, and DOCX files and converts it into bionic text.

Bionic reading is a new innovative method of reading used to improve reading speed. By guiding the eyes through the text with artificial fixation points, the reader focuses on the highlighted initial letters and lets the brain complete the word.

Although the benefits are not guaranteed, many people with dyslexia and ADHD have shared positive experiences on social media like improved focus.
