Document Camera
The document camera is basically an overhead that uses video. With a document camera, you can zoom in or out on whatever you’re displaying. So, if you have a map in your textbook, you can place the book under the document camera, zoom in on the map, and it will be projected as large as the screen is in your room. It’s a video camera, so anything you can fit beneath it you can project.
The document cameras have auto focus and auto iris features, as well as zoom in and out controls on the camera itself, or on the touch panel. Either controls will work the same, though most find it easier to use the controls on the camera itself. The more you zoom in, the larger the image will be. We recommend that you zoom in as far as the document will allow, and move the paper around as necessary.
Using the Doc Cam: setup and takedown
Below are two short videos that answer one of our most popular questions: How do I open/close the Doc Cam? Note that we have several slightly different models of Doc Cams, but they operate much the same.
Please be careful of your fingers when setting up and taking down the Doc Cam!
Lecture Capture
Lecture Capture is a digital recording technology that allows the instructor to record the combined audio, video and projected image of a class in a digital format. This video file can then be distributed to students or downloaded for archive. Our Lecture Capture system also allows you to live-stream your presentation online to remote users anywhere in the world.
To see if a classroom is equipped with Lecture Capture, use the Classroom Attributes tab above.

Wireless Microphones
Microphone maintenance
- When finished teaching, please plug the microphone back into its USB charging cable—by matching the arrows on the cable and the microphone.
- If you are going to use your own headset, please plug it carefully and correctly into the transmitter.
- Please leave the sacrificial cable plugged into the transmitter! If there isn’t a sacrificial cable or you believe the unit is damaged, use the classroom podium phone to reach us.
Microphone placement
The placement of the microphone and bodypack is critical for optimal performance. You want the microphone clipped at the center of your chest, about four inches below where your chin touches your chest; the bodypack should be clipped to your waistband or pocket, but not inside where the signal could be restricted. See the photo below, you want the mic to be within the red circle. If you don’t have a lapel just clip it to the fabric of your garment. Be sure the foam part of the microphone isn’t rubbing fabric when you move, it will sound “scratchy”
