Other general automotive applications
include inspecting hard-to-reach or
hard-to-see areas of the engine
compartment or undercarriage.
The PalmScope has only five control
buttons (power on/off, brightness up,
brightness down, video zoom, and video
flip), making it very easy to learn to use.
Video within the probe’s field of view is
displayed on a high-quality 2.4 in.
(61mm) diagonal color LCD.
The video zoom and flip functions make
The PalmScope an even more valuable
inspection tool. Doubling the size of any
component in the video frame makes it
less likely that any problem will be
overlooked. The reason to invert video is
to align the probe’s field of view with its
real-world surroundings; in practical
terms, this function makes it easier to
read upside-down labels and serial
numbers by flipping them right-side up.
The PalmScope includes four
accessories sized for the tip of the 9mm
probe: a 45° mirror, a pickup hook, a
magnetic pickup, and a metal ring (to
protect the threads of the probe from
damage).
