and ONYX Deskset 19

Portable, Versatile Answers to Low Vision Needs

For students, professionals, and others with macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, or other forms of vision loss, the ONYX Deskset 17 and ONYX Deskset 19 are perfect magnification solutions that go where you go in one easy-to-carry, self-contained package. They fit in any classroom, business, or home and move from one viewing situation to the next as quickly as you do. Plug them into any standard wall plug; They are ready to deliver crisp, clear magnification. The ONYX Deskset 17 magnifies up to 85x. The ONYX Deskset 19 magnifies up to 95x.

The ONYX Deskset 17 features a camera mounted on a rotating arm to a 17-inch flat panel monitor. The ONYX Deskset 19 features the same rotating arm and camera and a 19-inch flat panel monitor. The camera ’s mounting arm for both models has three axes, and the camera itself rotates up to 350 degrees. Place the camera in an almost endless number of positions to fit any viewing requirement. The camera mounts on either side of the monitor to best accommodate the task at hand.


Three Ways to Magnify

The ONYX Deskset models offer three distinct views: distance view, document view, and self view.

In distance view, even objects from across large rooms or auditoriums can be seen in sharp focus.

Document view gives you the ability to magnify items such as reading materials, daily business tasks, classroom assignments, product labels, and craft projects.

With self view, you get a magnified true mirror image close up. Making it even easier to use, the camera remembers its settings in each position so you can switch back and forth between viewing modes without refocusing or otherwise readjusting the camera.

Now with a rolling carrying case! ONYX Deskset models include a unique rolling carrying case with document pockets, zippered compartment for the power supply and remote control, and top-mounted zipper for placing the entire ONYX Deskset inside. Carry by two handles, or wheel your ONYX Deskset behind you with the telescoping handle.
