Hello to All,
I'm curious if anyone knows of any manufacturer that makes a USB or Firewire Headset that in addition to a microphone/earphone also contains a video camera (similar in form factor to the headset shown on this page: http://www.haivision.com/downloads/hai210m.pdf).
I'm primarily interested in using this for "Mobile VTC" applications; we've been doing this for a while with wireless laptops & camcorders but I'm always interested in pushing the design envelope for something smaller and "hands-free". Ideally I'd like to have a form factor similar to the Sony Vaio VGN-U70 (http://www.i4u.com/article1531.html - which by the way doesn't run the software only version of PVX becuase the processor isn't 1.5 Ghz, but it does run the Via Video II with its god-awful camera) hooked up to the headset camera.
If anyone else has been doing anything interesting in the way of "Mobile VTC", I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks much,
SMOODY
