Small Is Beautiful (Part 2)

In this series I am covering three trends that I really like in the world of document cameras. I like that...
  • document cameras are getting smaller (this post is part 2)
  • doc cams are turning colorful
  • high-definition is providing a crisp image viewing experience
This second posting continues our focus on the fascinating topic of small-form-factor document cameras


The small-form-factor document camera is a full-featured doc cam that meets some very important needs in classrooms today. It's not just a gimmick or a cool toy. Think about these important uses:
  • itinerant teachers moving from school to school, who can now easily take a document camera with them from school to school
  • traveling teachers and professors moving from classroom to classroom, who can now easily transport a document camera wherever they need it
  • teachers and professors with very limited desk, table, or cart space in classrooms; these new devices offer extremely small footprints, conserving scarce and valuable desktop real estate
  • teachers and professors with very limited work space in their homes or offices
  • teachers and professors who must travel light to present at conferences and seminars
  • an instant scanner, wherever you may be
  • for virtual office hours, wherever you may find yourself

When you think about it, small-form-factor document cameras suddenly make great sense. Gotta have one!
