Laser Disc Player

Complex



These are self-contained units which are slightly larger than VHS players and play laserdiscs. Laser Disc players are typically used in education for movies or interactive multimedia courseware. Their primary advantage over VHS players is the ability to provide quick access to any location on the laserdisc within seconds.  This is accomplished using a small barcode scanner and a book of barcodes, each indicating a corresponding chapter or section.
