CES: faceVsion announces first Skype-certified HD Webcam:
There are currently quite a few high-definition Webcams
on the market, but what faceVsion announced at CES 2010 is something
rather unique, especially for video calling using Skype...
The days of videoconferencing
in your pajamas are over. FaceVsion's TouchCam
N1 is one of the first webcams that takes advantage
of Skype's ability to make HD video calls, delivering
video so crisp and smooth that it's almost as
good as being there. You also get built-in noise
cancellation. But is $119 too much to ask for
a device that can stream yourself to co-workers
and loved ones at 720p? Click here

N1 is the first HD webcam certified by Skype for
true HD Video calls
• Full 720p HD Resolution – The
TouchCam N1 is the only HD webcam that can transmit
720p HD video over the Internet (competition can
do it “locally” only)
• Built-in Hardware H.264 Encoding
– high quality hardware encoding of the H.264
video stream delivers exceptional video quality
without taxing the PC’s CPU
• WIDE 78 Degree Lens – Industry
leading 78 degree Field Of View auto focus lens
sees more than just the subject’s head and shoulders.
78 degrees will get several feet to either side
of the subject and what’s behind too. Great for
video calls where multiple family members want
to participate.
• Incredible Sound – Dual built-in
microphones utilize beam-forming technology to
deliver outstanding sound quality and audio sensitivity,
even from several feet away!
• Exceptionally Easy to Use –
Simply mount the sleek-looking N1 camera to your
laptop’s lid or flat screen PC display, plug the
USB cable to an available Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connection,
and launch Skype 4.2 for Windows or higher. It’s
that simple.
