One click of a button launches Smart Capture, software to capture still images and video movies with the integrated 'MOTION EYE' digital camera, which can now capture images at a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. So mobile reporting, communication and interaction become visual activities and mobile PC users can enjoy an array of new applications and increase productivity at the same time. When designing the C1XN, Sony's engineers thought of the requirements of frequent travelers who need a mobile PC. Therefore, they wanted to make launching software and controlling the notebook as quick and easy as possible. With Sony's patented 'Jog Dial' they found the ideal solution. Users can now launch applications, switch from still to motion capture or adjust special effects for example, just by turning and clicking the Jog Dial. Once documents and pictures are stored on the hard drive, Sony's 3D CyberCode software helps user to find and open them again. To launch a document to which the user has already added a dedicated CyberCode, all the user has to do is pass the code from the printed version across the path of the 'MOTION camera EYE' and the document opens automatically. Up to 10 million pre-recorded codes to files or functions such as changing the background image on the screen, can be used. Sony's PictureGear Software not only enables users to organize and browse images, but also to adjust brightness and contrast, create simple animations or a panorama shot up to 360 from digital still images.
