Compact^mini

The power to see in the palm of your hand

Discover the power of using an ultra-slim pocket video magnifier.  The Compact^mini is the smallest and lightest video magnifier offered by Optelec, designed as a simple and effective, high contrast alternative to a traditional optical magnifier.

Small size, large screen
Imagine being able to read from medicine dosage labels, restaurant menus and bus timetables.  Simply position the Compact^mini over reading material and objects and view an enlarged, high contrast image on the 3.5-inch full colour screen.  Adjustment of the magnification up to 11 times is at the press of a button, with the facility to change the appearance of text colors using the range of high-contrast viewing options.

Important design elements make the Compact^mini a simple and effective video magnifier to use.  The camera is centrally located, so positioning the Compact^mini over reading material is easy and intuitive.

When out and about shopping, the snapshot facility is useful for capturing images which are out of eye-line such as the price displayed on a supermarket shelf.  Simply place the Compact^mini over the object, press the snapshot button and the captured image can be viewed as the Compact^mini is brought back into view.

Designed for convenience
The Compact^mini delivers the convenience which is expected of a modern, pocket-size solution.
Every Compact^mini comes complete with a built-in rechargeable battery, offering 3.5 hours of power.  Holding the Compact^mini for the first time will surprise many - the ultra-slim design and weight (only 134 grams) makes it the most convenient pocket video magnifier that offers a large 3.5-inch screen.

Use the Compact^mini in the library, whilst shopping, travelling and around the home.
