Congratulaons on your purchase of a Vuzix® CamAR™ for the iWear® VR920 virtual reality
system.
The CamAR ulizes a Dynex™ 1.3 MP Webcam (DX-WEB1C) housed in a custom enclosure that
mounts to the face of an iWear VR920 or AV920 video display and connects to a computer
through a dedicated USB connecon.
A Dynex CD accompanies your CamAR. It contains drivers and other soware for Windows XP,
Windows Vista and Windows 7. The Dynex webcam is also compable with the Mac OS 10.4.9
and higher but uses the funconality provided by the Mac OS and no addional Mac soware is
provided.
