Technology.
Sending images has never been easier. The Concord Eye-Q Go Wireless can beam an image to most Bluetooth(TM) devices that support OBEX and are able to receive, process and display a JPEG image. With over 1,800 members in the Bluetooth(TM) consortium, the number of Bluetooth(TM) devices in the market is increasing. The Concord Eye-Q Go Wireless camera transmits pictures from as far away as 30 feet and no direct line of sight is necessary. It is even possible to transmit an image through office walls. The camera can detect up to seven Bluetooth(TM) devices at a time allowing the user to select the device to which to transmit.
Easy to use. Easy to send.
"Our customers asked for quick and easy transfer of photos from the camera to a computer, mobile phone and PDA. Our answer is the Concord Eye-Q Go Wireless. What can be quicker and simpler than a digital camera that can transmit images without cables in as little as six seconds?" commented Urs W. Stampfli, Senior Vice President and Director of Global Sales and Marketing at Concord Camera Corp. ("Concord").
