Asus’ MS71

Its too small for mouse and too big for a USB thumb drive. But anyway, Cebit 2008 unveiled the Asus MS71, and sopposedly the base of this device opens and magic happens.

EyeClops Bionicam

Equipment Comments Off on EyeClops Bionicam

bionicam

The EyeClops BioniCam is a portable microscope from Jakks Pacific, the makers of the popular Jakks EyeClops Bionic Eye toy.

The EyeClops BioniCam expands the play in three ways:

First, with a simple flip of a switch, kids can adjust the new multi-zoom lens for an eye-popping peek at the world in 100x, 200x or 400x magnification.

Second, with BioniCam’s new portability feature, kids can now take EyeClops on-the-go, with a color LCD screen and clip-on battery pack that allows them to view amazing discoveries right on the hand-held EyeClops unit, anywhere!

Finally, a built-in camera and flash drive empowers kids to capture images and video of specimens and, with the included USB key, upload to a computer to be printed, emailed, posted and shared.

The wireless “EyeClops BioniCam” from Jakks Pacific has doubled the top magnification to 400x and has its own built-in color LCD instead of requiring a computer screen for viewing. It also comes with a USB flash drive presumably to record and transfer whatever images are projected on it, according to Dvice.

The EyeClops bionicam should be available by fall 2008; no word yet no pricing, but current EyeClops models are available for about $50, $60 with a viewng stand.
