It’s also helpful for resetting the gimbal or locking and unlocking the AI focus if things get wonky. Here’s a quick video showing the camera so you can see how it moves as it follows my motion. When the camera is locked on you and following your movements, it’s pretty damn cool. While the dual mics aren’t a match for a dedicated desktop mic, they sound really good and knock out ambient noise and I’ve had no complaints during my testing period. Keep in mind that what you see of yourself in a video chat is a local hardware picture and likely better than what your chat participants are seeing since almost all services are compressing bandwidth. The image quality is clear (and better than most anything built-in to laptops). Performanceįor daily video meetings, the OBSBOT Tiny has been great. The camera will automatically zoom in to 2x which in my use is better for face to face video calls.īoth of those commands can be reversed by repeating the same gesture. (Note that this green is all 3 LEDs lit up and doesn’t fade to the sides).Īnd for the second gesture… Put your hand next to your face in the shape of an L with index finger and thumb at a 90º angle like so. The gimbal will now move the camera to follow you around as you move. Hold still as the LEDs flash blue and when they turn green it’s locked onto your face. You may need to move it to the center of where it’s currently aimed and then bring your hand next to your face. Time for gesture one… Hold your hand (either one) next to your face with your palm facing the camera, all fingers together. Open up the app you want to use and select “OBSBOT Tiny” from the drop down for your video source and also for the microphone as well if you so desire.
