Which document camera do you want in future UNLV classrooms?

Teaching Faculty, we need your input. Epson is discontinuing the document camera model that is currently installed in most campus classrooms (ELPDC05), so we are in the process of selecting another model for future use.

The two models we are considering are listed below and are available for your use and testing:

  • CBC-B130
  • 8 a.m.-5 p.m.
  • Wednesday, Oct. 28 or Thursday, Oct. 29

Please drop by during those times to test. Make sure to bring along the materials you typically use in your courses. After you test the models, please send feedback and preferences on the cameras to Darrell Lutey. No one will be stationed in the area to demo the units, but Darrell is in the office next door (CBC-B129).  If he's there when you're trying them out, he'll do his best to answer any questions you have.
