New webcam combines motorised pan and tilt movement with a wide-angle lens

September 15, 2005 Creative Labs new webcam that was announced yesterday features some pretty advanced technology for its meagre US$150 price tag. The webcam offers a combination of motorized pan and tilt and a ViewPlus 76-degree wide-angle lens, Smart Face Tracking, and the webcam quietly and smoothly follows user movements during video instant messaging. The webcams automatic pan and tilt feature gives users the freedom of movement during video instant messaging with friends, family or business colleagues, automatically following users' natural movements during conversations, so they don't have to continually make manual adjustments to stay centered in the field of view. Users can also select Smart Face Tracking so it can follow the movements of one person, or disable it to include the whole group.
