Compact miniDiscover 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 colours 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.

Use the Compact mini for reading
