As I've been looking at websites to find out more information on projectors and document camera readers, I stumbled upon something new. It is called a Lightsmith Platform. I've included the following from their website:

How Does It Work?
The concept is simple. Any camcorder can be positioned above the Lightsmith platform using the flexible camera arm. Our patent pending reversible camera mount lets the user capture video images right side up and from any angle desired. Powered by the camcorder's AC power supply, images of amazing resolution can be displayed on a TV, an LCD projector, or a computer. While operating in pause mode, digital camcorders capture images at a rate of 30 frames per second, faster than most document cameras. And unlike most other visual presenters, hours of student presentations and digital portfolios can be captured to tape or DVD for easy documentation. The durable laminate platform also incorporates a full spectrum fluorescent light, and includes cable ties.
This site has great pictures of the Lightsmith Platform being used in a classroom as well as pictures of images captured using a digital camcorder and the Lightsmith Platform.
