Spritz-Reader Plugin
-> read the whole text with the Spritz technique
-> read selected parts with the Spritz technique
-> controle the speed
-> synchronize with the Spritz account
Spritz didn't invent the technique, its been around for years - search for Speed Reading software.

If you find a speed reader you like for your OS (Windows, OS/X or Linux) you should be able to integrate it into calibre via the Open With plugin. Others have done this for Text to Speech software, e.g. Babaloka and Nuance ???.

If you use Windows 8.x then Metro apps may be hard/impossible to integrate via Open With.

You could try running the Spritz Android reader in an Android emulator - not sure if you could integrate with the calibre Open With PI, might be worth a try
