Distance Learning Bundle

What the webcam captures in a hybrid lesson

The camera is a compact USB unit built around a 1/2.7-inch CMOS sensor with 2.07 million effective pixels. Its 3.1 mm lens covers a 90-degree field of view and includes distortion cancellation, which helps the edges of a wide classroom shot look cleaner. Video can be sent at 1080p, 720p, 960 x 540 or 640 x 360, each at 30 or 25 frames per second, so you can match the setting to your network and your conferencing app.

Audio and picture controls built in

An omni-directional dual microphone array picks up speech from across a room, while 2D and 3D digital noise reduction works to cut background noise in the audio and grain in the image. Auto white balance adjusts colour as lighting changes through the day. The shutter speed range runs from 1/30 s to 1/10,000 s. A privacy shutter is included, so the lens can be covered when the camera is not in use.

Setup, compatibility and connection

The tripod is made from aluminium alloy and extends from 475 mm to 1500 mm, folding to 505 mm for storage. Its three-way quick-release head carries up to 3 kg, and the tripod itself weighs 1.2 kg. A 2 m USB-A 2.0 extension cable is supplied, so the webcam can sit at the front of the room while the laptop stays on a desk. The camera uses a USB 2.0 Type A connection and follows UVC 1.0 to 1.5 standards. It is listed for Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 or later, macOS 10.10 or later, Chrome OS and Linux.

Where it fits in Qatar

• A school classroom in Al Wakrah or Al Sadd: pupils who are absent or travelling join the lesson on Zoom or Microsoft Teams, watching the same interactive panel.
• A training centre meeting room in Msheireb or Lusail: trainees based in other cities attend the session on Google Meet with a clear view of the presenter.
• A seminar room in Education City: researchers in other countries join a presentation given at the interactive panel, with the audio captured by the dual microphone array.

Planning the installation in Qatar

The operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C, storage runs from -15°C to 55°C, and humidity should stay between 20% and 80% non-condensing. Summer temperatures in Qatar can exceed 45°C, so place the camera in an air-conditioned room, away from direct sunlight through windows, and keep it out of open lobbies and entrances. Check the floor or desk space at the front of the room for the tripod at both its 475 mm minimum and its 1500 mm maximum height. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar can confirm the layout before you order several units for a school or training centre, and a single purchase order (LPO) can cover a multi-room rollout.

Certifications, box contents and packed size

The listed certifications are CE, FCC, IC, CB, RoHS and WEEE. The box contains one webcam, one tripod, one USB-A extension cable and a quick start guide.
