The
Educam video camera is especially designed to meet the various requirements in the educational field. When it is connected to a professional monitor or simply to a TV set,
Educam is able to carry out many different functions. It can be used as an episcope, for the reproduction of texts, documents, photographs; as an enlarger, to enlarge small objects, insects, minerals; for video-microscopy, connected to microscopes used in biology or to stereomicroscopes; as an overhead projector, for the projection of drawings; as a camera for conferences, assemblies, meetings; as a camera for filming, with the help of a video recorder.
Its ultra-high sensitivity enables clear recording even in low light. The special lens enables you to focus from 0.76 mm, up to infinity. An extremely sensitive microphone captures the teacher's voice during the lesson (or surrounding sounds) that can be heard via a TV or separate amplification system. The microphone can be switched off if required.
The special 500mm flexible arm (12mm dia.) and the heavy weight of the base (approx. 3.5 kg) make
Educam versatile, sturdy and stable. The CCD camera is placed on the end of the flexible arm that can be safely twisted in any position (even projecting from the base) without affecting the systems stability. A special joint allows the head to rotate without damaging the wires inside. All models are equipped with an external power supply and dual adaptor for videomicroscopy (for biological and stereo microscopes). For connecting to a PC, a USB video grabber (
52-9308) is available.
