Mothers Day Tech Ideas – News 13 Segment Canon Ivy2 and Logitech Universal Folio

For this Weeks Segment of Talking Tech on News13, Andy Taylor reminds us that It probably doesn’t need to be said but just in case for Mothers Day Tech Gift Ideas, The Tech Behind Robotic Floor Vacuums, Tech Toasters or a New Outdoor Cam is cool, not always the great idea for Mom. Activision Blizzard had a story last year about the growing numbers of Mom’s that are Gamers! While we may not recommend an RTX4090 or new Console, We looked a little differently this year at some great accessories.

First Up, If Mom has a Tablet and doesn’t like using the On Screen Keyboard, a Nice alternative is available in the Universal Folio from Logitech. The Universal Folio can work with both iPads and Androids like the Samsung Tab. Using Bluetooth technology, The Universal Folio connects from the Keyboard to the Tablet and allows you to use the keyboard on the Folio which also doubles as a Stand for the Tablet. Extremely long battery life with Two Lithium Coin type batteries and nice for using just about anywhere, the List price for the Universal Folio is about $60.00

We also have the Canon IVY 2 mobile printer. Print Small Size photos from your Smartphone and even edit this and artistically add clip art, frames etc. The App has many features and when you are ready, print to the small mobile printer, it will deliver a 2x3inch print using ZINK technology. Zink Means Zero Ink. The Glossy Photo paper is sticky backed if you want to stick them on something. It comes with 10 print pages and 100 more could be purchased for about 50 bucks. It’s a lot of fun to be creative with the prints and hand them out to friends. The Printer itself sells for about 80 bucks, this was a big hit at the station as we took photos and were able to hand them out.

News13 Segment Posted – Tech Products for the Desktop from Logitech!

For the Segment April 01in Studio, Andy Taylor of @TechtalkRadio Focused on Products to give some help at the Desk! While many have returned to In Office Working, the landscape has changed and have found the benefits of Remote Collaborations and Conversations using technology.

During the Pandemic as many of us shifted to Working from Home and Virtual Meetings with Webcams, we found many companies were ready for Video Conferences and there was a run on even the most basic cameras. One of the companies that continued to produce quality webcams is Logitech. They make great products for the home user, education and gamer and have added focus for business.

We are sharing a couple of products they have introduced, All New is the Logitech MX Brio 4K, This step up from the 2017 Brio features ultra HD 4k resolution video, Logitechs largest webcam sensor giving you a sharper picture even in Lower Light. AI image enhancement is a part of bringing that quality to user – It features a Dual Microphone Sensor with Excellent Noise Reduction and options through the Logitech G Hub Software. It will integrate with the popular communication programs like Skype, teams and Zoom and even features a Privacy Shutter! It Retails for about 199.00

Sound is also a part of the Equation and as a radio host I wear headphones for upwards of 5 to 8 hours a day, these are the most comfortable headphones I have worn. The Logitech Zone 2 Wireless headphones are amazing. Hear remote participants clearly, even if they are in a noisy environment. Switch on Advanced Call Clarity and your conversation can be clearer with Four noise-canceling mics suppress sound from nearby conversations, pets, even AC, Zone Wireless 2 gets up to 15 hours of talk time or 22 hours of listening time, 5 minutes of charging can provides up to 1 hour of talk time, They are super comfortable. AI is also incorporated into the Zone 2 Wireless for that Noise Suppression. The Zone 2 Wireless retail for around 249.00 Find out More at https://www.logitech.com
