The Aussie team behind Prompt-it, the low cost portable teleprompter for smartphones has just unleashed their latest teleprompting peripheral – the Maxi, aimed at speech-giving iPad owners around the globe.
Essentially just a scaled up version of the original Prompt-it, the Maxi works by reflecting your speech from your iPad’s display onto a sheet of beam splitter glass, which you video through, allowing you to stare straight down the barrel while reading.
The Maxi will set you back $250, and is expected to ship in September.
