Califone DC896 Document Camera

Offering 12x optical zoom, three light modes, an annotation feature, a remote control, and the ability to save infinite pictures via USB, the DC896 delivers all of the audio / visual controls you'd expect from a flatbed document camera. The Diggiditto can also be used in conjunction with material already prepared on a computer to shift back and forth between the two to explain concepts, regardless of the discipline. The DC896 can be used for displaying textbook pages, student work, and lots more. This sustainable technology provides a large visual element so students can better visualize the content, it will inspire interactivity and improve student presentation skills. The DC896 has multiple inputs and outputs on the rear and side to easily connect with multiple devices. Fully rotating camera head with built-in infrared receiver from the remote control. USB connection for computer compatability and can be then projected onto a screen, TV, electronic whiteboard or PDP screen in real time. Dual LED lights for full illumination from above. Built-in full size lightbox (8.5" x 11") allows for the full display of negatives, x-rays, and transparencies.

After clicking the pen icon on the toolbar along the top of the screen, the "Pen" menu appears. The options are Pointer, Pen, Transparent Marker, Figures, Eraser, Thickness, Color, Background, Save, and Print. After placing this Califone MP3 player under the camera and using the pen option, we wrote this note and saved the file.

Califone live at the Blender in NYC ... This was a pleasant surprise finding them on upcoming.org on our first day in town.

The 3068 delivers performance at an economical price for 1:1 instruction in listening centers and library uses. One advantage of the 3068 is its ability to switch between typical monaural functions such as in English Language Learning / English Language Development, language labs, speech pathology applications and the stereo mode for use in computer workstations and music appreciation classes. Califone designed this headphone with the stereo/mono user switch for optimal sound quality. The use of an internal processor (seen on a competitive product) to attempt this function has been shown to create quality issues which can include but are not limited to: decreased frequency response, increased distortion and diminished volume levels for students.
