Moritex, specialists in advanced digital imaging, have announced a major OEM arrangement with the Tropin Corporation (Stuart, Florida, USA) that brings digital image capture and archiving technology to the healthcare and industrial sectors at a fraction of cost of current technological solutions.
Within the arrangement the Tropin Corporation is building a new division, operating initially in North America, dedicated solely to the marketing and technical support of the Moritex PalmScope™ - a unique handheld product that captures still images or video clips onto a removable CompactFlash card.
Currently many doctors, veterinarians and industrial technicians using endoscopes, borescopes and ultrasound equipment produce images in analog rather than digital format. Moving over to the digital format offers many advantages including easier image recall and access to target information, simpler and more comprehensive examination of results and ease of storage. However until recently adding digital image capture and storage devices to existing equipment was costly and limited in terms of capabilities.
Hascia Marder, CEO of Tropin, commented 'PalmScope is a very well thought out, top quality product that supplies a perfect solution to healthcare and industrial users looking for an affordable, easy-to use add-on digital image capture and storage device for their equipment'. Kevin Sebley, Business Development Manager at Moritex, added 'We are extremely pleased to access the wealth of direct marketing and sector expertise within Tropin to bring the many advantages of PalmScope to a new audience'.
PalmScope™ has been designed for ease-of-use and convenience. Captured images and video clips are automatically named with the date and a sequence label. Images can be organised with an overlay of up to 10 lines of text using an optional standard PC keyboard. The PalmScope includes a convenient thumbnail gallery feature with cataloguing functions to help in archiving and retrieving images. PalmScope includes a range of cataloguing functions help in archiving and retrieving them, including the ability to rename, delete and move or copy images between folders. An individual image may be selected for full size viewing. Alternatively images can be easily transferred to a PC where they can be displayed or processed by any suitable image editing software.
Tested and approved to CE and FCC regulations the durably constructed PalmScope™ is compatible with PAL, NTSC, composite and S-video signals. A built-in 6.5" TFT LCD display allows you to preview the video before saving it to the memory card. Video clips are captured at full NTSC or PAL resolution, at 30 or 25 frames per second (fps) respectively, and stored in Motion-JPEG (MJPEG) compressed format. Storage capacity is limited only by the size of the CompactFlash card used, a 2GB card will hold many thousands of images or approximately 80 minutes of video.
