Hsinchu, Taiwan, May 17, 2022 – Lumens® Digital Optics Inc., today announced the DC132U HD/2K document camera. This portable device is Lumens' new standard USB visualizer, which builds on the success of its predecessor, the DC125. The new model, which features a 16x zoom (via software) and closes focusing down to 4cm, produces video at HD resolution and above. Recording at up-to 30 frames per second, the DC132U connects to a PC or Mac via USB to capture, share and display images that are bright, colorful, and vivid. 

The device's no-joint, highly flexible gooseneck enables 360° viewing angles and extreme close-ups, making it suitable for use in natural sciences, craft, textiles, and other fields where visualizing detail is crucial. The DC132U can also connect to remote guests using popular conferencing platforms, such as Zoom, Meet, Skype, or Teams. Steven Liang, VP of Product Development for Lumens, commented: 

"In traditional classroom and training room settings, the DC132U excels as an easy to use, high quality document camera. However, during the global pandemic, document cameras have also played a key role in hybrid teaching. Featuring a flexible neck and professional microphone, the DC132U can be used as a webcam for online sessions, making it ideal for collaborative training and distance learning."

Designed for use by teaching professionals, trainers, and presenters, the DC132U is very easy to use, with all key functions available through physical buttons on the camera base. The image optimization function automatically adjusts sharpness, brightness, and focus, making it simple for anyone to produce great results. With the supplied Lumens Ladibug™ software, users have access to advanced image controls, including annotation, mask, spotlight, and recording functions.
