Casio PRIZM fx-CG10 Color Graphing Calculator
PRIZM™ is revolutionary among graphing calculators with features that enhance users’ understanding of mathematics.
With conventional graphing calculators, students learn by inputting equations to create graphs. PRIZM™ creates a whole new way to learn math by enabling students to experiment by creating their own graphs over pictures of real-life scenes, and then understand the functions from the graphs that they created on their own.

• High-resolution color LCD with full textbook-style display
• Picture Plot enables learning from real-life pictures
• Multitude of functions that leverage the color LCD

High-resolution color LCD with full textbook-style display
- The color LCD offers full textbook-style display with the highest pixel resolution* (82,944 dots) and widest color reproduction* (65,536 colors) of any calculator.
- PRIZM™ comes with high-resolution fonts up to 18x24 dots (including blank dots), to enable equations and text to be displayed just like they appear in textbooks.
- The Blanview LCD delivers superior visibility and low power consumption, enabling color display with an estimated run time of 140 hours on four AAA-size alkaline batteries.**
- *As of October 7, 2010, for the pixel resolution and color reproduction of calculators. According to a survey by Casio Computer Co., Ltd.
- **Using repetition of the following one-hour sequence: Menu display for 5 minutes, Run-Matrix mode calculation for 5 minutes, flashing cursor in Run-Matrix mode for 50 minutes. Based on default settings for display brightness and auto power off. (Refer to the Specifications for exact settings)
PRIZM fx-CG10 Picture Plot enables learning from real-life pictures
- Picture Plot enables users to create their own graphs over pictures displayed on the color LCD.
- PRIZM™ comes with 55 types of color pictures that users can create graphs over, such as a picture of the parabola of jets from a water fountain and an image sequence of a clock’s pendulum movement.
- Users can perform regression calculations from the completed graphs to enhance their understanding of math functions.
Multitude of functions that leverage the color LCD
- Colors can be added to a multitude of graphing objects including dotted lines, circles, and bars, as well as grid lines on graphs, labels of coordinate axes, and coordinate values displayed during tracing.
- The Color Link function links the colors used in graphs to the designated values in the spreadsheet screen, to aid the visual comprehension of trends and changes in values.
- PRIZM™ automatically color-codes brackets when entering equations with multiple brackets, as a visual aid to facilitate the entry of complex equations.
