Ordinary to Extraordinary Much more fun than a microscope, the EyeClops transforms any television into an interactive TV toy. With the EyeClops, the ordinary becomes extraordinary.

Enter a world of liliputians:
This is a great "toy" for kids as well as adults. It takes some time to connect to your tv (I used a Panasonic 42" Plasma) and learn how to focus.

This is awesome. Everyone in our house, kids and adults, like to check things out with it. Great for exploring our world up close. We've looked at just about everything.

AS long as you focus the eyeclops and then every once in a while make sure the focus didn't get messed up it is easy to see stuff. There are very clear instructions on how to focus and it is easy to do... more info
