Visualiser & Document Camera

What is a visualiser?

A visualiser is a versatile teaching tool that combines the functionality of a video camera, overhead projector, and magnifier into one device. It allows real-time capture and projection of documents, books, objects, or even live demonstrations onto a screen or interactive whiteboard, making it an invaluable asset in classrooms and lecture halls. Visualisers have transformed traditional teaching methods by removing the need for time-consuming processes to digitise physical materials. With a visualiser, educators can instantly project and zoom in on detailed visuals, annotate content in real time, and even record or save sessions for later use. This level of interactivity not only enhances student engagement but also improves content retention by offering a clear, hands-on visual experience.

Whether you're highlighting a science experiment, sharing student work, or walking through a text, visualisers help bring lessons to life and support more inclusive, accessible learning.

Visualisers combine the functions of video camera, overhead projector and magnifier in a single piece of equipment. Hugely beneficial for schools.

Visualisers or visualizers have opened up an area of teaching that was largely impossible to achieve without a great deal of work being involved in transforming objects that needed to be projected into digital images that can then be projected from a laptop or pc.

The visualiser is like a video camera that can capture and, record and save. It allows the image being captured to be projected via a projector on to an interactive whiteboard or any screen so students can viiew the object in great detail. With an interactive whiteboard, teachers and lecturers are able to annotate over the projected image and capture it for future use.
