Marketing Information |
The red Lumens Ladibug DC166 is a
high-resolution multimedia document camera that delivers crystal clear
SXGA resolution, (1280 x 1024 pixels) with a powerful 6x optical zoom
lens. Its large (16.5" x 11.7") image capture area allows teachers to
share the full two-page view of many books. All Ladibugs use a fully
adjustable gooseneck design that can display any object from any angle.
SXGA Resolution and 6x Optical Zoom with Superior, Crisp Image Quality
Displaying objects, books and experiments on a big screen improves the
ability of students to concentrate on the material and enhance
visibility for students sitting in the back row or behind a taller
classmate. With SXGA image output (1280 x 1024), including XGA (1024 x
768) and WXGA (1280 x 800), the ladibug DC166 delivers superior image
quality. The SXGA resolution of the ladibug DC166 deliver 66 percent
more detail than cameras with XGA resolution. Books with small fonts, as
small as eight or even six point type, can be read clearly on a screen
or monitor. The power lens provides 6x optical zoom, while Auto Focus
automatically sharpens the image with a click of a button. Both features
assure that every single detail of an item, such as the structure of a
dollar note, fabrics or feathers of a peacock, is caught.
Auto Tune and Auto Focus for Best Possible Image Quality
With Lumens' unique one-touch Auto Tune function, the DC166 achieve the
best possible image by automatically tuning brightness, contrast, color
balance, exposure and focus. In addition, the focus button conveniently
located on the camera head lets the teacher easily adjust the camera
head position and adjust focus with a single movement.
Easy to Use
Like all Lumens document cameras, the red DC166 Ladibug has been
designed with ease of use in mind. Any feature can be started or stopped
with the click of a button. The remote control, as well as the unit's
physical design, allows educators to integrate the camera into their
natural teaching style, whether they would rather walk around the room
or stand next to the unit to control it. The camera's gooseneck-mounted
light and camera solve the problem of a teacher's creativity being
limited by the capabilities of the equipment and allow educators to use
a broader range of visual examples than ever before.
Flexible Gooseneck Design for Easy Adjustment
The DC series provides a unique gooseneck design that mounts the camera
and lamps on separate gooseneck arms to provide ultimate maneuverability
and flexibility. With a quick adjustment, teachers can show documents or
3-D teaching materials from every angle, with the desired illumination
and without restrictions. The 6x mechanical zoom combined with the
maneuverable head lets teachers can zoom in to smaller text or objects.
Plenty of Internal Memory and Storage
With the DC166, educators can easily capture images _ by clicking the
capture button _ and automatically store them on the unit_s internal
memory. Saved images can be readily recalled as a slide show or as
single images.
In addition to the internal memory which stores 120 images, the DC166
offers an external memory option, allowing users to store additional
images on an SD Card. The DC166 is compatible with SD cards up to 2GB
and SDHC cards up to 32GB. After storing, teachers can recall the images
and videos as often they want. The Flip mode allows users to rotate
images, while Lumens queue" software lets them to make annotations on
the images.
Stand-Alone Video Recording
Educators can record videos directly onto an SD card, without a computer
or extra software, by simply pressing the record button on the remote.
Videos are automatically stored on the SD card and can be played back as
often as necessary.
Record Videos, Capture Images and Annotate with queue" software
The Lumens queue" software supports both the Microsoft Windows® and Mac
OSX platforms. With the queue software, teachers can easily record
videos and capture images to save as files on the hard drive. In
addition, teachers can add annotations directly onto live or saved
images. Live images with annotations can be saved with the push of a
button.
Slide Show capabilities and Lumens FastSlide" Technology
After capturing and storing images onto the DC166 internal memory,
teachers can choose to display desired images (or all available images)
as a slide show. This feature can be stopped or started by pressing the
_Slide Show_ button. With Lumens FastSlide" technology, the DC166
features industry-best slide loading speed _ up to 300 slides per
minute. Educators can be assured that they will capture students_
attention without losing valuable teaching time to slides loading.
The five slide show transition effects allow users to quickly and easily
create a professional presentation.
Image and Time-lapse Capture
Teachers can use the DC166 ladibug as a digital camera to capture still
images from materials, books, and illustrations for playback during
class or to document class activities. The Picture-by-Picture function
presents stored images and live images in a split screen to allow
teachers to present images for before and after comparison.
Time-lapse photography capabilities allow educators to compress time by
capturing images of continuous movement at a pre-set interval. Teachers
can then play back as a slide show and let students observe a flower
opening or a silk worm coming out of its cocoon.
Pan/Book Mode
With this feature, teachers can automatically zoom from full page mode
to showing only the top-half or bottom-half of the page with a click of
a button, without re-positioning the documents.
VGA and USB Connections
With a VGA pass-through plus a VGA output, the DC166 can be connected to
an external monitor and a projector simultaneously. An analog output for
television and a USB 2.0 output for PCs, Macs and interactive
whiteboards further extend the connection options.
USB 2.0 High-Speed TWAIN, WIA and Linux Support
Support for USB 2.0, TWAIN and WIA allow the camera to readily function
with interactive white boards and other classroom equipment. The support
of Linux enables educators to connect the camera to Linux applications,
such as Xsane, Skype, and GStreamer.
Dynamic Noise Reduction" Technology
Many DLP projectors come with a lot of image noise when you connect them
to a document camera. The Lumens Dynamic Noise Reduction" technology
removes image noise.
Auto Erase and Anti-theft
The DC166 offers an automatic wipe clean option, called Auto Erase,
which allows users to choose to automatically erase internal memory
after each use. For schools that share equipment, this ensures a clean
start for each user. A Kensington Lock Slot discourages theft.
Credit Card-Sized Remote Control
The Lumens' Ladibug remote control provides access to the most-used
features and gives educators the option of operating the presenter from
a distance if they prefer to walk around the room or need to attend to
students while continuing the lecture.
