TwinView 24-Inch HD Split-Screen Monitor
NEW Optelec TwinView 24" HD Split-Screen Monitor Button
The First 24-inch Low Vision Monitor Offering High-Definition and True Split-Screen Capability!
Discover the power of true split-screen functionality and meet the demands of today's students and professionals living with lowvision. The NEW Optelec TwinView is a revolutionary 24-inch full HD monitor designed for multi-taskers who work with a PC and also need magnification. For an ultimate low vision workstation, the Optelec TwinView combines the images of the Optelec ClearView+ desktop video magnifier and PC on a single monitor simultaneously.
The Optelec TwinView low vision screen eliminates the need for multiple screens, harnessing the power of the latest powerful video magnifiers – including those with high definition cameras.
Imagine using a single low vision workstation, bringing together the functionality of the PC in combination with the facility to reference magnified text books and paper documents. The Optelec TwinView 24-inch free-standing monitor offers a 178 degree wide viewing angle and will automatically adjust the horizontal or vertical split-screen position in ZoomText or SuperNova to have an optimal image. With just a few user-friendly controls, productivity is improved for those using magnification - more overview, less toggling and advanced functionality.
The TwinView also has multiple video inputs that allow it to display two images at the same time when connected to external devices such as the recommended ClearView+, as well as FarView, ClearReader+ Advanced or ClearNote+.
How Does it Work?
Connect the PC and Video Magnifier to the Optelec TwinView monitor and view images from either device in full screen mode, toggling between both at the press of a button. Alternatively, using the NEW True Split-Screen functionality, combine and view both images from the PC and Video Magnifier by choosing one of four configurations and never lose sight of the mouse pointer.

Split-screen functionality explained
The process of combining the image signal from the PC and Video Magnifier is known as Split-Screen, eliminating the need to use two separate monitors.
Historically, the solution for many students and professionals with low vision has been to use a video magnifier for reading materials and use a PC with screen magnification software. However, content viewed from both the PC and video magnifier was by means of using two individual monitors (consuming valuable desk space), or by having a single screen – the latter scenario made possible using a more expensive and less responsive split-screen video magnifier.
Experience Split-Screen in High Definition
Amazingly, the Video Magnifier no longer needs to have a special split-screen camera, which is often a more expensive option. The Optelec TwinView low vision monitor provides the split-screen capability, making all the adjustments automatically, and when connected to a high definition video magnifier (such as the ClearView+ HD Color) ensures the best possible image is displayed at a superior resolution (1920 x1080 pixels) in either full or split-screen. Users can also fine-tune the display of the TwinView using the on-board large font menu.
Essentially, the Optelec TwinView low vision monitor is the first screen designed for use by people with visual impairments. The generous 24-inch wide angle viewing angle and fast response time makes it ideal for combined use of magnification and high contrast. The unique true split-screen functionality and automatic set-up empowers those with low vision to study, work and compete more effectively within the mainstream environment.
