OPAL™

Ultra-portable Video Magnifier

The OPAL goes anywhere you can. Take it shopping to examine prices, labels, and small details. Take the OPAL to the bus stop to read the schedule, and never get on the wrong bus again! Take it to the library, the pharmacy, restaurants, and banks. Even prop up the built-in writing stand to write checks.

.When traditional magnifying glasses are no longer enough, the OPAL is the answer. The OPAL is the world's smallest, most feature-packed portable video magnifier - unobtrusive and not embarrassing to use like a standard magnifying glass or head-worn magnifiers. When your friends see your OPAL, they will want one, too!

Key Benefits

bulletTechnology makes the OPAL powerful, magnifying from 4.5x to a mighty 9x. Freedom Scientific makes it easy. The OPAL is designed for people with absolutely no technical experience. Simply lay it flat on your reading, and slide the lever to increase magnification until words are crystal clear. You'll quickly become familiar with the OPAL and will be experimenting with different colors of type and background to suit your best vision.

Fusion Portable CCTV

Fusion represents the latest design and style in portable CCTV video magnifiers for people with low vision. Fusion is the only two-in-one portable model available, allowing the user to choose to operate the magnifier as a single-unit or as a dual-unit (separate the mouse camera from the monitor unit) depending on the user's preference to accomodate tasks like reading thick bound books or labeling on bottles.

Fusion is the only portable video magnifier that compacts "laptop style" (7Ό" x 7Ό" x 2Ό" slim and weighs only 3 pounds), so the LCD screen is better protected from scratches and more secure while in transport. Fusion has a preinstalled 3-hour rechargeable battery, for totally wireless portablility, or plug in the power supply for extended use or to recharge.

Fusion magnifies 6x-18x by adjusting the roller atop the mouse camera. Press the right mouse button to select Color, B/W or Reverse image. Toggle the left mouse button to change from the original-size to double-size magnification. Enhance the image intensity via the Brightness dial on the monitor panel. Easily prop Fusion onto its two fold down stands for writing.

Fusion is ideal for most low vision people who want to be mobile and remain active. For those who struggle to read with an optical magnifier due to macular degeneration, Stargardt's, RP, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, or other visual impairment, Fusion's variable magnification, contrast, and video enhancement benefits may help to read more comfortably and effectively.

Fusion is cool for students, especially its "laptop-style" look and compactness. Carry Fusion in its shoulderstrap case or just slide it into a backpack. The advanced features menu allow students to customize image settings, check battery status, and more.

Fusion is the perfect companion for the mobile employee, who can conveniently take it into a meeting, on a business trip, or between home and office.

Onyx Deskset 17" or 19"

The Portable, Versatile Answer to Low Vision Needs

Deskset 17" $2,595

Deskset 19" $2,795

Case included at no extra charge.

For students, professionals, and others with macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, or other forms of vision loss, the ONYX Deskset 17 or 19 is the magnification solution that goes where you go in one easy-to-carry self-contained package. It fits in any classroom, business, or home and moves from one viewing situation to the next as quickly as you do. Carry it about with a top-mounted carrying handle, and plug it into any standard wall plug; it’s ready to deliver crisp, clear magnification up to 85x.

The ONYX Deskset 17 or 19 features a camera mounted on a rotating arm to a 17-inch or a 19-inch flat panel monitor. The camera ’s mounting arm has three axes, and the camera itself rotates up to 350 degrees. Place it in an almost endless number of positions to fit any viewing requirement. The camera mounts on either side of the monitor to best accommodate the task at hand.
 

Three Ways to Magnify

The ONYX Deskset  offers three distinct views: distance view, document view, and self view.

In distance view, even objects from across large rooms or auditoriums can be seen in sharp focus.

Document view gives you the ability to magnify items such as reading materials, daily business tasks, classroom assignments, product labels, and craft projects.

With self view, you get a magnified true mirror image close up. Making it even easier to use, the camera remembers its settings in each position so you can switch back and forth between viewing modes without refocusing or otherwise readjusting the camera.

Now includes a roiling carry case with document pockets, zippered compartment for the power supply and remote control, and top-mounted zipper for placing the entire ONYX Deskset  inside. Carry by two handles, or drag behind you with the telescoping handle.
