New laser devices aim to simplify presentations

Logitech points to the business sector

Logitech has launched two new presenters for the business market.

The R800, which retails for £69.99, is armed with a green laser designed to work on LCD screens and in well lit rooms, has a timer with silent, vibrating alerts, a range of 100 feet, and a reception-level indicator on the LCD. The USB dongle slips out from the back of the device to plug into the PC for wireless connection.

The lower end R400, which retails for £44.99, features a red laser which will be visible on the majority of backgrounds, and has a range of 50 feet. Both presenters are plug and play, requiring no software to run.

“When you give a presentation, you want to engage with your audience, not the technology,” said Rory Dooley, senior vice president and general manager of Logitech’s Control Devices business unit. “Packed with features that are designed to make you a better presenter, the Professional Presenter R800 and Wireless Presenter R400 eliminate the need to run back and forth to your computer or interrupt your PowerPoint presentation to tell your colleague to go to the next slide.”
