I got the all-new OKIOCAM S2 Pro, a 4K Ultra HD document camera boasting a 12MP camera in the most compact and portable form factor you’ve ever seen. This camera is not only ultra-flexible, easy to use, and high quality, but it’s also surprisingly affordable and comes with exciting OKIOPoint technology. If you’re wondering, “What is OKIOPoint?” think of it as a magic wand that tracks movement, zooms and pans, and even highlights, underlines, and spotlights text!
Video Overview
In the video below, I unbox and review the OKIOCAM S2 Pro, showcasing its impressive features and functionalities, and explaining the power of OKIOPoint technology. I also dive into all that you can do with their software, OKIOCAM Live.
In the video, you’ll see me demo the five presentation modes OKIOPoint offers: zoom and follow, highlight, fluorescent marker, underline, and spotlight. OKIOCAM Live even allows you to record with picture-in-picture functionality, enabling you to capture multiple camera sources simultaneously, and it has built-in annotation tools, too.
Classroom Applications: Tracking Reading Progress
I also share a classroom application geared towards elementary school students and English language learners, focusing on using the OKIOCAM S2 Pro with OKIOPoint paired with Microsoft Flip to take reading practice to the next level. Students can use the OKIOPoint virtual pointer to highlight one line at a time as they practice reading. The best part is that they can record their progress using a combination of OKIOCAM Live software and Flip. This not only elevates their reading practice but also enables teachers to provide personalized feedback, track progress, and even share these videos with parents to showcase their child’s reading journey.
This is truly a fantastic product for educators, content creators, and students!
