Came from A&M University when they upgraded equipment. These were not used much before they were replaced. Not all of these that I got in came in their original Wolfvision box, so some may be packaged in a different / similar box.

WolfVision is a worldwide provider of products and services to leading universities, businesses,
schools, and other organizations. An acknowledged ‘technology leader’ in the Visualizer and
presentation solutions market, WolfVision is the company that takes the lead, setting standards
worldwide for innovative, reliable, user-friendly, high performance presentation solutions.
WolfVision‘s entry-level VZ-3 and VZ-3s systems feature a unique new eye-catching design where the
camera, light system and electronic hardware are integrated into the Visualizer arm, and include all
the standard features that every user requires. The VZ-3s is the same unit as the VZ-3, except that it
is supplied without a working surface. Instead, it features a unique space-saving ‘swivel plate‘ which
attaches directly to a tabletop or podium surface, providing even greater installation and integration
options.
Our extensive knowledge and expertise across all application sectors enables us to offer
comprehensive consultative guidance on customized combinations of Visualizer and camera
hardware, software, and accessories, which enhance communication, collaboration, and
knowledge sharing across all environments. As part of each individual Solution we offer
not only pre-sales advice, but also post-sales support, training and service, ensuring that
you receive maximum benefit from your investment.
High Performance Imaging:
WolfVision Visualizers are well-known for their unrivalled imaging quality, which is due to the perfect combination of high quality components and remarkable expertise. Our systems deliver high resolution throughout the entire picture, true-to-life colors, and consistently high frame rates to ensure smoothness of motion. They have fast and accurate autofocus and zooming, giving high quality dependable results every time! High end lenses provide distortion-free images, and high tech lighting systems deliver smooth and consistent lighting without distracting reflections or hot spots.
Large Zoom Range
A large optical zoom range is one
of the most important features of a
Visualizer, because only an optical
zoom can pick up objects in full resolution. WolfVision‘s 12x optical zoom
picks up objects as large as an
open book or as small as a postage
stamp in full size to fill the screen.
For enlarging even smaller objects
the Visualizer also offers 2x digital
zoom.
Easy To Use / Zoom Wheel
For standard operation users only
need to use the zoom wheel on top
of the camera head as all other
controls such as focus, brightness,
etc., are adjusted automatically.
Dry-Erase Working Surface
Optional dry-erase working surfaces are available for the VZ-3
Visualizer. This enables a speaker
to write directly onto the working
surface during a presentation,
enabling the Visualizer to be used
spontaneously as a whiteboard or
”digital flip chart.
Adjustment-Free Light System
The light system is optimized for
the working surface, so there is
never a need to make any light adjustments. It has an extremely long
lifetime of 30,000 hours, which can
be considered as maintenance free
for most installations.
Powerful High Resolution
Camera
WolfVision‘s VZ-3 Visualizer systems feature a high definition
1-CCD camera with 30 frames per
second and sRGB color precision.
They can output native resolutions
in SXGA-, WXGA, and 720p HD
formats
Anti-Theft Devices
The VZ-3 Visualizer has two antitheft devices. There is a thread on
the bottom of the working plate for
attaching the unit to a table with the
supplied table lock bolt (VZ-3 only).
Additionally, T-Lock (Kensington®
Lock) devices can also be used
Flexible Installation:
The VZ-3 Visualizer is a highly
compact and portable system
which can easily be used to serve
a number of different rooms. The
VZ-3s is the exact same unit, but
it is supplied without a working
surface and is designed to be
used as a fixed installed unit.
The VZ-3s can be mounted directly onto a desktop or podium
using the supplied ‘swivel plate‘
which gives the added advantage that the unit can be rotated
sideways through 90°. This facilitates easy storage and keeps the
desktop surface area completely
obstruction-free.
The VZ-3s is particularly useful if
there are space restrictions, and it
provides an additional installation
option if the system is required to
fit into a particular room design. It
is the ideal solution if the unit is to
be installed on a podium.
