Motion webcam. It features an ultra-wide lens, USB 2.0, and 640×480 resolution…But probably the coolest part is the MaxView technology it uses. What Creative Labs calls MaxView is the combination of the webcam’s 76° lens and a mechanical pan ‘n tilt, which provides a 200° horizontal range and a 105° vertical range. This can be manually controlled via software, or better yet, you can turn on “Smart Face-Tracking” and the webcam will actually track you as you move. It is even purported to be able to track multiple people in the room."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/114472153878.jpg" /> <br /><br />This seems pretty cool. I like the design. Nice styling. Cool glowing light thing. The face tracking is a cool feature, but I’m not sure I want to know what you would be doing in order to need the camera to track your movements. :? But for 130 bucks I’m sure I can find something cooler to spend my bread on. I mean, that’s almost half a PSP!
