WolfVision VZ-8light2 visualizer

WolfVision VZ-8light2 mid range, progressive scan visualizer, which is a major upgrade on the popular VZ-8light, with a newer and more modern design as well as new features. Ideal for universities, secondary schools and corporate enterprises.

Modern data projectors provide the ability to display higher resolution images using its "data" input instead of its "video" input. This is where "Progressive scan" cameras come in. They output a "data" signal with more resolution than PAL/NTSC "video" could provide. Especially the vertical resolution is no longer limited to 400 lines from top to bottom (PAL standard) or 350 lines (NTSC standard).

VZ-8light output a native XGA signal on RGB (15-Pin D-Sub) outputs. The Visualizer recognizes units connected to the DVI and RGB output and automatically selects the perfect output mode.

Motion" used to be the weakness of Progressive Scan cameras. Until recently they could only pick up 15, 7.5 or less pictures per second. A low number of pictures per second often resulted in a disturbing strobe effect on the screen, whenever something was moved in the picture or when adjusting zoom or iris.

It is very important for a professional presentation that motion can be shown in good quality and without any image disturbance. WolfVision uses newly developed Progressive Scan CCDs which can pick up 20 pictures per second for the VZ-8light. As a result

Firmware updates are available free from the Internet .

There is nothing to be seen on the table/lectern and the view between the presenter and their respective audience remains undisturbed.

Although the EYE-10 doesn't come with its own light system, alternative room lighting or a spotlight for the working surface can be used.
