Although it has been in existence for some time, "ELMO" gained
a great notoriety among attorneys during the O.J. Simpson case, when ELMO
was used to present a great deal of evidence to the jury. But the ELMO
used in that trial was large and cumbersome. This ELMO weighs only 5 pounds,
and comes with a deluxe carrying case that is not much bigger than a purse!
Best of all, not only is it much easier to carry, it costs only half as
much as it's bulky predecessors!
So, just what exactly is ELMO?
ELMO is a device which allows attorneys to display physical evidence,
including photographs, 3-D objects (like a gun, knife or broken part),
and documents, onto a TV monitor or projection screen (when combined with
a multimedia projector). With its 10-X zoom lens, you can fill the entire
screen with an object as small as 1-inch! Our favorite demonstration techniques
is to place a penny under the ELMO, then zoom in to full magnification.
When you do this, you can see Lincoln sitting in his chair in the center
of the Lincoln Memorial! This is a great example, because that is something
that many jurors may not have been able to see even if they were holding
the penny in their hands!
The ELMO is also extremely helpful in focusing a jury's
attention on just the portion of the evidence that you want them to concentrate
on. For example, if you have an accident photo, and you want them to concentrate
on the tire, you can zoom in and fill the screen with just the tire. The
image is still in context, and now the jury is focusing on the tire, instead
of the windshield!
In addition, you can even hook ELMO up to a VCR, and record
your images (and even your voice as a narration) onto video tape!
This is great for videotaped depositions, expert witness testimony, and
even for just making notes to review later.
If this sounds great, just wait until you see ELMO
for yourself! Call us today for a free, no-obligation demonstration!
