Conventional wisdom would have had Pure Digital’s Flip camcorders wash out because of their limited features, but it’s precisely this which has led them to seemingly overthrow the budget camcorder market. Their dead-simple controls and narrow focus have made them ideal for a generation growing up on YouTube and video blogging. The Flip Mino HD promises to do the same for high-definition video and with even simpler editing. But does it live up to this promise?

 

 

Design and controls

 

Those who have seen the standard-definition Flip Mino won’t see much changed in the HD version; it’s fundamentally the same camera on the outside.

 

This isn’t necessarily a weakness. As with the earlier design upgrade, the new model is very pocketable and manages to be lightweight without feeling cheap or flimsy. It also has a number of thoughtful touches that you might not expect on a video camera built to a price: both the power button and USB connector toggle are designed such that you won’t trigger either by accident but also aren’t difficult to use. A port to screw in a monopod or tripod is at the bottom and likely to be appreciated for those worried about stable shots, though curiously Pure hasn’t included HD video output. A mini HDMI-to-HDMI adapter would have been valuable versus the low-resolution RCA carried over from the earlier cameras.

 

You can also personalize the Flip Mino HD with an outer skin either pre-designed by Pure or sourced from one of your own images. It’s a small component, but it does help the appeal of a device which is likely to be owned both by a younger crowd and which actually has a design flat enough for large images. The test unit is a simple black model, which is attractive in an understated way but which might also pick up some dust if left out in the open for awhile.

 

The improvement the new Mino could stand center around the lens. It could use a lens cover, either automatic or manual. While there’s a helpful carrying pouch to prevent damage, there will invariably be owners who forgo the pouch or who otherwise accidentally scratch or smudge the lens surface. And as always, a true optical zoom lens would be appreciated, though this might compromise the relatively thin shape; it’s hard to say whether this might over-complicate the camera.

 

There’s no expansion on this Flip, which uses 4GB of built-in flash memory. That’s regrettable, but with about an hour of HD recording isn’t that out of line with higher-end camcorders. An SDHC card slot would nonetheless have been nice for the truly ambitious trying to capture a wedding or a similarly long event.

 

Using the camera proper is likewise surprisingly pleasant for something with so few controls. Again like the original Mino, the camera controls are all touch-sensitive and helpfully light up to show you which actions are available in context. There isn’t much you can do: you can only choose to record, adjust the digital zoom, and (when outside recording) browse stored videos to either play or delete them.

 

While unfortunate for those who would hope to launch into serious video editing with a budget camera, the truth is that there’s still a refreshing simplicity to it. The only artistic concerns are framing shots and knowing when to record. It’s easy enough that a child or a complete novice could produce video, and that speaks volumes for Pure’s knowledge of its audience.

 

Image and sound quality

 

Naturally, the single largest addition to the Flip line is the boost to 720p (1280×720) HD video, and the difference is quite apparent just on a cursory glance of the video: the image is noticeably larger and sharper. In an era when it’s virtually assumed that more and more camcorder owners will also own an HDTV or a widescreen computer, it would be hard to go back to the older Mino knowing its shots would appear comparatively blurry and use only part of the screen to show the final image.

 

Actual output quality is mixed but definitely in line with or better than one would expect from a camera at this price. The sensor preserves a surprising amount of detail when the camera is near-still or moving at a fairly slow pace, though it adds a decidedly visible amount of blur under many other circumstances; this isn’t a camera for action shots. Colors are also somewhat subdued — likely due to a lower contrast — but certainly acceptable.

 

Low light performance isn’t quite as spectacular as Pure might claim. It’s true that the camera has a better sensor than earlier Flips and will capture video in moderately dark rooms, but our experience showed more blurring than usual in these conditions. It’s also not as graceful adapting to rapid changes in lighting as could be hoped: it took a second or two for the camera to switch from a dark room to a view of the daylight outside, resulting in temporarily blown-out white light until it settled back down. All video cameras are affected by these factors to some degree; it’s just that the Flip is more sensitive to this than a traditional camera.

 

And as before, the lens does play into the final output. The relatively small lens size produces a sometimes noticeable amount of chromatic aberration, or the “purple fringing” that occurs when objects are set against a bright background like the daytime sky. Likewise, without real optical zoom, there’s no way to center in on a subject while adding detail. Digital zoom only crops and scales the shot, so users in most cases are better off just leaving the camera at default zoom levels unless absolutely necessary.

 

Audio is similarly basic; it’s just a single-channel microphone. However, Pure has now added omni-directional sensitivity, and in a crowded shopping center it was clear the camera was picking up sound from the wider scene rather than just a particular field.

 

It also has to be reiterated that the Flip Mino HD costs $230. That’s less than many basic standard-definition camcorders, and it’s hard to fault the device’s creator when it still produces entirely watchable HD at this price.

 

Battery life

 

There isn’t much to say about the runtime of the camera other than to say it’s good enough for the intended purposes of recording video for the web or for small-scale personal use. Pure rates the battery at two hours of continuous use, which is half as much as the regular Flip Mino but still twice as long as the actual recording time. It only becomes a concern when the Flip is left idle a long time without a charge, and then only for those ambitious enough to record up to the limit. Until the Mino HD comes with 8GB of memory, or enough to use those two hours of runtime, the battery won’t be a primary concern.

As we should know by now Japan has some of the wackiest and most unusual products anywhere. So when we were visiting Tokyo recently and saw lines of Japanese schoolgirls waiting to play an amazing new game for the Wii called Super Pii Pii Brothers we were only a little surprised. After all with games like WarioWare and Raving Rabbids the Wii is no stranger to crazy gameplay mechanics… but it was quite unusual to see the “strap-on” style accessory and peeing action that Pii Pii Brothers provides. 

 

The play mechanics are simple. Prepare yourself by strapping on the included belt harness and jacking in your Wiimote. A series of toilets are presented on screen and the challenge is to tilt your body to control a never-ending stream of pee. Get as much pee in the toilets as you can while spilling as little on the floor as possible. Sounds easy eh? Well the toilets open and close whack-a-mole style and occasionally the stray cat or other cute critter pops up. Spray a cat for extra points. Get too much pee on the ground and your game is over. With realistic fluid dynamics for the pee and over 100 different bathrooms from bars and palaces to automatic Japanese style toilets you’ll be entertained for hours. And wait until your friends see the multi-player mode with dueling pee streams…

 

According to the Japanese text on the box “Super Pii Pii Brothers promotes good bathroom skills and allows women to experience for the first time the pleasure of urinating while standing.” What we say is that virtual peeing is damn fun!

 

 

 

Product Features:

1. - Video Game for Nintendo Wii Provides a Virtual Peeing Experience
2. - Amazing Realistic Pee Fluid Dynamics
3. - Imported from Japan
4. - Comes with game disc and Wiimote belt harness
5. - Includes cross regional boot disc to allow play on US Wii consoles
6. - Minimal Japanese text makes game easy to understand if you can’t read Japanese
7. - Over 100 different peeing environments with multiple toilet and urinal styles
8. - Up to two players can compete with dueling pee streams

Better Images From the Moment You Click Scan

 

VRS reduces the time involved in manual document preparation and enhances the quality of scanned images. Capturing high-quality images is critical to the rest of the document management process because image quality significantly impacts the success of data extraction, recognition, and retrieval.

 

 

Features

 

Better Images From the Moment You Click Scan

 

VRS reduces the time involved in manual document preparation and enhances the quality of scanned images. Capturing high-quality images is critical to the rest of the document management process because image quality significantly impacts the success of data extraction, recognition, and retrieval.

 

 

 

 

Background Smoothing

 

Based on a simple setting, VRS automatically analyzes images while scanning and outputs an image with a solidified background color. This improves viewing clarity and reduces file size, making it more practical to save color documents that are part of the business process.

 

 

 

Reduced Document Preparation with Content-based Rotation

 

No need to turn all your documents to the same orientation before scanning. VRS will automatically analyze the content of each scanned document and correct the orientation of the image on the fly. Even when scanning in duplex mode! Feed a document in all possible orientations, whether it’s upside down or reversed, skewed or rotated 90 degrees right or left, VRS turns it right.

 

 

 

Improved Recognition

 

Since VRS automatically straightens and cleans each scanned image, the accuracy of your optical character recognition and handwriting recognition software increases dramatically.

 

 

 

Easy to Use

 

Scanning is simple and easy with VRS. No special knowledge of scanning, special filters, or image enhancement is required. Operators just press the scan button and VRS does the rest.

 

 

 

Scan at Rated Speed

 

Allows scanners to operate at their full rated speed without interruptions. All VRS features work at rated scanner speed, regardless of scan mode (black & white, grayscale, or color), or your scan application’s interface (KOFAX, ISIS,TWAIN).

 

 

 

Capture Color On Demand

 

Scan mixed batches of black & white and color documents. VRS automatically detects the documents that should be black & white from those that should stay in color. Easily capture spot color as well.

 

 

 

Easy to Use Interface

 

One of the problems with document scanning is related to the differences between scanner user interfaces. In a mixed scanner environment, VRS provides a single, unified and easy to use interface minimizing operator training and confusion.

 

 

 

Network-friendly Images

 

Noisy backgrounds and shaded areas are suppressed, resulting in ultra-compact image files ideal for display and rapid retrieval over your network.

 

 

 

 

Automatic Cropping and Deskew for All Scanners

 

VRS offers automatic cropping and deskew for all scanners including white background scanners. In the past, this required a black background scanner or special black background kit. Now, VRS includes automatic background cropping and deskew available on all VRS certified scanners.

 

 

 

Intelligent Blank Page Detection

 

VRS is able to determine if the back side of a page contains real information, or if it is simply bleed through from the front of the page. If VRS determines that the back side is bleed through, then it deletes the image. If VRS detects real content, the image is saved.

 

 

 

Eliminate Hole Punch Markings

 

Fills holes with surrounding page color on documents with content, improving their appearance and removing distractions for the reader. Ignores holes on pages lacking content, enhancing performance of automatic blank page deletion feature.

 

 

 

Advanced Clarity

 

Even the toughest documents – blueprints, wrinkled paper, security paper – are no match for VRS 4.1 Professional. The new Advanced Clarity feature in VRS 4.1 Professional offers an additional image quality option to process documents with complicated, textured backgrounds.
