Right now, I only use an overhead projector for my classroom. What other devices will I need to run the IPEVO - a computer? a projector of some kind?

You would be better of with a good quality webcam and use your own or make your own brackets. These cameras are iffy at best, and you are paying for the bracket not the quality of the camera. I switched to a better nice HD camera for under this price by logitec. Quality is great on the Logitec and comes with software and great options. Good luck.

This document cam will plug into a computer through the USB port. I also have the computer set up to a projector. Camera to computer to projector. ; ) hope this helps

You will need a computer/laptop. And perhaps a small reading light attached to the stand. I am not sure if the IPEVO will work with an iPad or tablet. I haven't tried either of those. You will also need a projector if you plan to use the IPEVO in a classroom setting.

I use a laptop and a projector and a smartboard. I am very happy with it. You do not need a smartboard, any screen or even wall will work.

Hey Pokey,Yes, you need a computer, on which you load the pretty simple IPEVO software and you run it thru any kind of standard LCD projector that you might use for your powerpoints or other images. Many schools have placed these in classrooms so teachers can project materials, and most of us have laptops -- so in that situation, this little device is an amazing value. It replaces that overhead because you can project anything without making them in to slides. Its just a little video camera is all.

I keep my laptop and lcd projector on a cart together for daily use. I check them both out at the beginning of the year for use all year. When I need the webcam I plug it in and use it. It has been a wonderful, economical alternative to an ELMO.

Can I use this by itself instead of an overhead projector? If it takes pix, then how does it project it to screen?

It is a USB camera. You will need a computer to power it and to get the feed. You can use the moniter, TV or projector to view it.

You do need a projector. I already had one that my school provided, but I don't know what brand it is.

Not 100% sure what you're asking about, but this machine does not have a built-in projector. It does have built-in wireless, but no Bluetooth.To the extent I understand your question properly, you might need an external Bluetooth-capable projector and a Bluetooth transmitter that plugs into one of your USB ports.

We purchased this with a regular projector that hooks up to our laptop. We used regular computer speakers and it worked out great!

There is a chord that connects the Elmo to the projector. If you wish to use data or film clips from your computer there is an adaptor called a dongle which is added to the end of the data chord when it is detached from the Elmo. There may be some kind of y connector or splitter available on the market but we don't have anything like that. This is the best purchase I've made for instruction.

it has a vga port for pc connection. If your laptop has an hdmi port, you can also use it for pc connection. But this projector is not recommended for use in a large conference/church/class room with bright lights on or during the day time. It is not bright enough for business presentation. It is great for the home theater and games at your home though.

If you are talking about projecting an image on the wall using the IPEVO and an LCD projector, yes.

yes, but the screen size depends on the distance of projection. The classroom can not be too bright.

You need a VGA or an HDMI cable to use your laptop with the projector. But the battery of the projector is pretty good so for short presentation you can project it using just the battery.

Yes you can but the flash drive has to be connected to a laptop. I don't think you can use the projector without a computer. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

If your chrome device has compatibility with projector/display hardware, then download the Ziggi software from online site and it all should be plug and play. :-)

This works GREAT. All I know is that with all the new computers we use this to work w/ projectors. I don't have any chromebooks but worth a try.

Unlikely, Most projects are only running tiny operating system and usually don't have usb drivers for anything other than usb storage. The projector itself would have to a driver for this adapter and have a setup screen for bluetooth. I do not know of any projector that can do that. I would suggest something like Chromecast, Matchstick, Roku stick, or Fire tv that plugs into a projector through HDMI and would stream over wifi.

I am fairly sure the device has to be plugged into a PC/MAC USB port to render the video. I don't think it works by just plugging into a projectors USB port as the projector doesn't have a CPU/GPU to render graphics, hence, how this DL-195 chipset works.

Yes... You'll need a projector as well. Epsom makes the best projectors from my experience.

It all depends of how much dark you can get your classroom and how big your screen would be So, you can buy it and adjust the size of your screen accordingly to the brightness in room Some hints: First -This is one of the brightest led projectors yet (even LG PF85U with 1000 lumens is somehow not so more strong, because image seem those they boost with a wite lamp to get more lumens, like acer k530) Second: Led lamps do not get weak over the time like regular ones do, and the light is somehow much less yellow tinted, so one 700 lumens led projector, can be compared with a much brighter regular lamp projector, like a old 2000 lumens lamp one Third: If you want a brighter and much more powerfull projector, that lasts more than 20.000 hrs, specially to use in classrooms, go to the casio signature models, with 2500 to 3000 lumens (white light also). Those casios have not so great color balance, costs like U$ 830 to U$1000, but are the perfect choice for educational issues, and are really realy strong (there is a youtube presentation were a guy uses it's internal laser source to cut appart some plastic garbage, to show how strong is its light source - of course, when iside the projector, its laser is safe and does not hurt anyone - but dont stay staring directly to the light at short distances, as you wouldnt do also on a 3000 lumens lamp projector...)

I believe you just need a regular VGA cable that's usually supplied with either the projector or the computer. You can confirm that by looking at the back of the projector to see if it is says computer in. These cables come in various lengths, so hopefully you'll find one long enough for your connection.
