WolfVision. WolfVision GmbH is a developer and manufacturer of presentation, collaboration, and knowledge sharing systems and solutions based in the Vorarlberg region of Austria. WolfVision Visualizer systems (also known as document cameras) are special optoelectronic devices designed to pick up images of 3-dimensional objects, documents, books, photos and other items from a non-reflective working surface, providing a high resolution output signal for video/data projectors, monitors, interactive whiteboards or videoconferencing systems.

Visualizer systems are used for making presentations in conferences, meetings, and training sessions. They are also used for displaying material in detail during videoconferencing and applications. In higher education environments, WolfVision's Visualizer products are used as a means of displaying lesson content materials on-screen during lectures and collaborative learning sessions. They are also used for lecture capture, for the recording of material for use in flipped classroom and blended learning situations.
