This is the whole of the new Double 2 that appeared. The long bar extends from the two wheels and the basic structure on which the display using the iPad rides is almost the same as the previous model, but when you look closely you can see that new devices are installed above and below the display.
What is on the display is a camera kit that shoots the surrounding landscape and delivers it to the other party. Although I used the inner camera of the iPad in the past, adding a camera kit that is prepared as an option makes it possible to obtain wide-angle, high-quality images.
The camera kit incorporates a 5-megapixel device and can take wide shooting at 150 degrees. You can shoot at wide angle of 16: 9 as shown below.
In addition, adopting the technology "adaptive HD" and "dynamic resolution" to make the screen easier to see. In this way, the contents written on the whiteboard are often hard to see when passing through the camera ... ...
By using these technologies, it is said that visibility can be improved.
In addition, the stability in the horizontal direction is improved in this model.
