ZOOMAX Announces New Product: M5

First "2HD" Touch Video Magnifier for People with Low Vision

HANGZHOU, China, Sept. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ZOOMAX, the world's leading developer and manufacturer of low vision products, announced the release of their latest product: the ZOOMAX M5. M5 is the first 5'' handheld video magnifier on the global low vision market that employs a "2HD" design, utilizing a High Definition (HD) camera in conjunction with an HD touchscreen.

"We are proud that ZOOMAX is able to bring to people with visual impairments a product that utilizes latest human-computer interaction technology," said ZOOMAX Chairman, Mr. Vincent Lee. "Empowering people with low vision to gain independence and remain active are our main goals at ZOOMAX. We see M5 as a breakthrough product, designed to provide the best image quality of any handheld video magnifier, along with the best user experience."

M5's innovative features make this new product stand out:

    --  The first "2HD" electronic magnifier solution for perfect image quality
Other HD video magnifiers offer an HD camera, but not an HD screen. ZOOMAX is the first developer to present a truly HD device, with both HD camera and HD screen.

    --  The FIRST and ONLY combined touchscreen & tactile interface
ZOOMAX developed the first combined interface, adding power of touchscreen while maintaining tactile buttons that are familiar to users.

    --  Easy-to-learn touch gestures
As other manufacturers implemented all functions into complicated touch gestures, ZOOMAX innovatively redefined touch gestures into simple, intuitive movements that utilize only two fingers.

    --  "One-flick" design to change contrast color
With "One-flick" design, users can freely "flick" their finger in any direction on the sensitive touchscreen to cycle through 11 color modes in order to suit their specific viewing needs.

    --  Easy panning of captured images
Any captured image can be magnified and then easily moved around on the touchscreen to view every detail in every part of the image.

    --  Ultra-slim and lightweight, tailored for on-the-go
Thinner than 1 inch (20mm), M5 is supremely slim and lightweight with a beautifully crafted body and a weight of just 9.35 oz. (265g) for ultimate portability.

    --  Magnification from 2.3X ~ 16X
    --  11 color modes: 10 high contrast color modes plus full color
    --  Auto-switch between near/distance-view
    --  Save 60 images
    --  Approx. 4 hours of continuous use
