Digital Microscope

In my last class of grad. school, we were asked to research up-and-coming technologies for the classroom.  My professor, Dr. Maureen Yoder, created an exemplar of a digital microscope.  Here are the specs:

1. Name of device:  Bodelin ProScope HR Mobile
2. Link to source(s) http://www.bodelin.com/proscopehr/proscope_mobile/
3. Retail Price $399
4. Description: The ProScope Mobile is a high resolution microscope, with a 50x lens, that uses BlueTooth technology to connect to an iPhone, iPad, or iPod  Touche. It creates a WiFi network and will “display live video on up to 253 Apple Mobile devices simultaneously”. Images and video can be seen live, and also captured for later uploads to a computer.  It does not work with computers or non-Apple products.
5. Classroom Possibilities: The ProScope can be used outside, so it can be taken on field trips and used for nature studies. Because it is handheld, items are not limited to what could fit under a traditional microscope. In the classroom, a teacher can project the image from the ProScope so that every student can see the magnified image. Or, images can be saved and used in student presentations, written reports, or art projects.
