The SMART SDC-450 Document Camera transforms real objects into digital content. It's a great way to demonstrate, explore and understand – even when the concepts are abstract or complex.
Capture images and create multimedia lessons
Create more engaging lesson content by easily capturing images, video, and audio with the SMART Document Camera. For example, you can record a science experiment with the document camera and save it for later use in class, or students can record demonstrations during presentations to review later.
Mixed Reality Tools included
Manipulate and explore 3D content in your SMART Notebook file by placing the Mixed Reality Cube (included) under the SMART Document Camera lens. It provides students with a hands-on experience that engages students from all learning backgrounds and helps them understand complex, abstract, and conceptual content.
Seamless integration
The SMART Document Camera is a perfect match for other SMART products because you can control it directly from your SMART Notebook lesson – with just one touch. It’s easy to display images on your SMART Board, LightRaise interactive projector or SMART Table.
Inspire students as they learn
When you take an object—a leaf, for example—and display it for all to see, it's easier for students to understand higher-level concepts, like photosynthesis. You have a visual and kinesthetic way of teaching and learning.
Integration with SMART Notebook
Access and control the document camera directly from SMART Notebook software without leaving your lesson. You can write over images and then save them to the Gallery.
Easily capture clear, detailed images
The 5-megapixel (MP) camera with 80x zoom gives students clear, detailed images and videos of any object. Plus, you can direct learning by zooming in on the details of the object.
360-degree view of any object
The flexible gooseneck design makes it easy to view objects from different angles. The objective can be aligned with a microscope using an optical adapter (included).
Simple image control
Autofocus any image and easily adjust brightness levels to suit different lighting conditions using the on-screen menu. And the LED light lets you use the document camera in a dark room.
Webcam
The document camera can be used with video conferencing software, such as Bridgit conferencing software, to share objects and demonstrations with remote students.
Save the content
Save images to the built-in internal memory, SD card or USB flash drive. Note: these devices are not included.
Intuitive control panel
Control all functions – including magnification, brightness and focus settings – from a simple interface on your SMART document camera.

Multiple connection options
Connect to a SMART Board through a computer using a USB cable. You can connect the document camera to other products, such as a monitor, projection screen, or flat panel display, through DVI-D, VGA, and composite connections. A secondary USB port allows the use of USB flash memory.
Improved mobility
The document camera is compact and foldable, so it is easy to store and move around the classroom or between classrooms.
