The QuickTime Video Conferencing Camera 100 is a CCD image sensing device capable of working in a variety of light conditions and providing video images to the video input of the computer. The external package provides a means of stable positioning in a computing work environment while allowing the user to position the camera for a variety of image captures.
Each pixel of QuickTime Video Conferencing Camera 100 has a color filter and lens over it. The lenses widen the effective photodiode light-sensing area, making the CCD more light-sensitive.
The QuickTime Video Conferencing Camera 100 also introduced the QuickTime Media Conferencing software which allowed real-time collaboration with video, audio, and transmission of still images, text, and ‚whiteboard’ capability via local-area, wide-area, ISDN and ATM networks. Cross-platform connectivity was available via the H.320 teleconferencing standard.
