The Auto-light Sensor USB Web cam looks futuristic enough to make you want to add one to your birthday wishes list. It features an integrated microphone and does not require any complicated software installation, as it is said to be a totally driver-less device.
In addition, it features a 360-degree viewing angle, allowing everybody in the room to fit in the picture, and it can easily deal with dim light conditions.
The webcam measures 75 x 72 x 50 mm and weighs only about 170 grams. Such convenient sizes will only add points to its portability score, not to mention the fact that it requires very little storage space around the room. Among the technical specifications we can list a decent resolution, of 1280 x 960 pixels, provided with the help of the 300k pixels CMOS image sensor.
The video format is 24 bit RGB, while the frame rate is the same 30 fps, as with most standard devices. The web cam's focus range is of 5cm to infinity, it has a built-in image compression system, just as all the highly rated cams on the market, as well as some usual options like automatic white balance, manual focus, auto exposure control, auto flash control of the images and more.
The web cam is compatible exclusively with Windows XP/ME/2000/98SE, so it probably won't work with Macs. Too bad it doesn't feature any of those cool visual effects web cam makers are adding these days.
Furthermore, the price tag is also motivating, since some might consider the 24 bucks price tag a reasonable one.
