Description

Wi-fi and Bluetooth wireless digital photo frame made by Martin Szekely.

A remarkable encore
The very first collaboration between Parrot and Martin Szekely produced a digital photo frame with an incredible design: Specchio. When the frame is turned off it becomes a mirror, and when it is turned on it displays your loveliest memories. One year on and Parrot is joining forces again with this eminent designer to produce a real gem. With a design as striking as its predecessor and its larger size, this new addition to the Specchio range will brighten up any room with your photo memories, while retaining the same values: simple design, outstanding quality and an understated presence. Your photos will now be able to really convey the emotions you felt. You can simply display more than 1,500 photos on a 10.4” high-definition LCD screen.

A wonder of the modern world
In keeping with its image as a company at the cutting edge of technology, Parrot does not stake its reputation only on the frame’s sleek design. Grande Specchio is a combination of new technologies. Integrating Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless technologies, it enables you to share and transfer your photos from your PC, Mac® or mobile phone. Not to mention that the SD card slots and USB port make it easy to transfer the photos stored on your PC, USB flash drive or digital camera. Last but not least, you can increase the frame’s memory by storing your photos on an SD card, which also allows you to retain your photos’ original size.

Wi-Fi: offering not only connectivity, but access to the world
The main innovation offered by this frame is the multiple applications that can be accessed via Wi-Fi. Thanks to the Google operating system, Android, you can access any webpages around the world containing general information, sports news and the latest economic and financial news. Frame It or even Frame Channel offer you access to entertainment news and any kind of practical information which can be supplied directly to your frame via RSS. You can also share your photos with the whole world. Expand your online community via sharing sites (Facebook, Picasa, Flick’r etc) and share your emotions. Receive photos from your loved ones directly to your frame via email, bridging the distance that separates you.

A unique interface
Creating an extraordinary product based on ordinary cooperation was the objective that Martin Szekely and Parrot set themselves. But how do you marry elegant design with easy use when it involves the occasionally complex application of state-of-the-art technology? The solution to this was to create an interface that was easy to control, intuitive, attractive and in keeping with the times. With touch-sensitive keys at the top of the frame and a discreet trackball… no detail has been overlooked when it comes to ensuring that you can move around your frame with comfort and ease.
