The MA-1 STEM-CAM with Built-In Touchscreen from Elmo is an on-the-go, mobile document camera. It features a 1080p video camera that captures vivid color and a 5" touchscreen, and it's very simple to operate. The MA-1 offers local and web communication, software presentation tools, and easy integration with projectors and displays, a solid companion for educators and business professionals.
The core of the MA-1 is the tiltable movable camera head. It serves as a video camera, a webcam, and a photo camera/scanner. It has a 16x zoomable f/2.0 lens that lets you focus in on parts of a scene or magnify details of a document from as close as 3.9" away. The touchscreen allows you to configure the STEM-CAM and folds down for storage.
A built-in microphone lets you use the webcam function to conduct online meetings. While connected to a computer, any images captured with the photo camera/scanner function can be saved to an SD card. Connected to a projector or HDTV, you can apply various image features with the integrated software such as split-screen, highlight, mask, picture-in-picture, color filters, and annotations. The MA-1 can also connect via Miracast wireless devices to deliver your presentations wirelessly from as far as 50' away as you walk around the room.

The Elmo Scottie Go! Magnetic Tiles are a set of 53 large magnetic tiles useful in educational coding applications. Well suited for teaching elementary grade students the basics of coding, the tiles help illustrate basic concepts and strategies of algorithmic coding, such as parameters, loops, and loop nesting. Educators can place the tiles on a flat surface or stick them to any magnetic surface, including select whiteboards, for class presentations.
The tiles have large printing and icons, along with tab and slot cutouts that simplify building a step-by-step visual algorithm. The tabs and cutouts help prevent connecting incompatible tiles. This set is compatible with the Scottie Go! Edu app and allows students to solve the first 24 quests.
