Video Magnifier
Also known as: CCTV Magnifier, Electronic Magnifier, Desktop Video Magnifier
An assistive device that uses a camera to capture and display magnified images of printed material, objects, or other visual content on a screen. Video magnifiers range from portable handheld units to desktop models with large monitors. For musicians with low vision, handheld video magnifiers can be used to view printed scores hands-free, and some models like the Freedom Scientific Ruby and eSight wearable offer high-definition cameras with real-time visual enhancement features.
