Insta360 Link 2 4K AI Webcam with gimbal

 

The Link 2 4K AI Webcam from Insta360 lets users upgrade the quality of video meeting, family call, and livestreams. It captures UHD 4K video at resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 at 30 fps using a 480 Mb/s USB-C 2.0 connection, while other supported resolutions include 1080p and 720p at up to 60 fps and 360p at up to 30 fps. To help improve image quality and framing, users will be able to take advantage of a 2-axis gimbal that pans and tilts to follow you around the room and also set tracking fences so the webcam will stop tracking at defined boundaries. Also featured is Whiteboard Mode, which optimizes your whiteboard content, keeping it in focus and even squaring it off, plus DeskView, which tilts the camera down to provide a full view of your desk. Depending on how much privacy you'd like, you'll have the option to fully blur your background, use natural bokeh, or fully replace the background. In terms of audio, AI noise-cancelation allows for Voice Focus, Voice Suppression, and Music Balance modes.

Also featured is a 1/2" sensor, HDR support for balanced images in both low light and high contrast environments., Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF), a 4x digital zoom, and auto focus. Instead of a privacy cover, the Link 2 automatically tilts down after 10 seconds of inactivity. Or, manually tilt the camera down at a time of your choosing. This webcam is compatible with Windows 10 or later and macOS 10.13 or later. Attachment options include an included magnetic mount with a 1/4"-20 mounting point.
