PalmScope(TM) from Moritex USA, is a new device for capturing and storing sequences of still images or video clips for
industrial, scientific and medical applications. The industrial-hardened device's rugged construction and the absence of
moving parts make it extremely durable and ideal for use in the field. Typical applications include: Medical diagnosis and forensic applications, routine maintenance, quality control inspection and fault-finding, security applications.
PalmScope(TM) captures still images or video clips to a removable CompactFlash card. It is compatible with both PAL and
NTSC, composite or S-video signals, and 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 12 frames per second at full NTSC or PAL resolution, and stored in Motion-JPEG (MJPEG) compressed format, allowing approximately 3 minutes of video to be stored on a 128MB CompactFlash card. Still images are stored in a compressed JPEG format, and over 1000 images can be stored on a 128MB CompactFlash card. Storage capacity is limited only by the size of the CompactFlash card used, and a IGB card will hold many thousands of images or approximately 30 minutes of video. Captured images and video clips are automatically named with the date and a sequence label. Images can be organized into named folders, and a range of cataloguing functions help in archiving and retrieving them, including the ability to rename, delete and move or copy images between folders. The PalmScope includes a convenient thumbnail gallery feature, which allows you to search through the library of captured images and then select one for full-size viewing. Alternatively the images can be uploaded to a PC where they can be displayed or processed by any suitable image editing software.

gloves or protective clothing. The full range of functions is available via an infra-red remote control.
