Computer Devices











Thumbprint Scanner
This proves to be an excellent tool for keeping the secrecy of the work area intact and the scenario becomes even more crucial in cases where sensitive and censored documents are dealt with. Generally the protection of such data is done with the help of secret passwords but still, thumbprint readers enhance and uplift the security levels and tighten it. Nowadays, hacking of passwords is a growing concern and therefore one needs to be proactive and install a thumbprint reader to ensure complete security of their data.

Video Projector
A video projector is an image projector that receives a video signal and projects the corresponding image on a projection screen using a lens system. All video projectors use a very bright light to project the image, and most modern ones can correct any curves, blurriness, and other inconsistencies through manual settings.
