We've obtained literature from HumanWare regarding a forthcoming magnification product for low vision users called the SmartView 360. The 360 refers to the ability of the camera to tilt in various directions. It includes three viewing modes, desktop, distance and self view and features a 19-inch LCD monitor. No pricing information is available. We've included a text version of the brochure after the jump.
