Many of us remember the old overhead projector from our school days. Think of a document camera as a contemporary version, capable of taking or relaying an image of whatever is placed beneath its lens – be it documents, maps, diagrams or even three-dimensional objects – for simple sharing. It can also magnify detail, again to make the dissemination of information much easier.
Arriving in a soft, padded case for carrying between classroom, laboratory and lecture theatre, or simply keeping the dust off at home between Teams meetings and Zoom calls, the futuristic-looking Epson ELPD21 Document Camera does its best to make something utilitarian and practical almost exciting and desirable.
