Video conferencing to be transformed with BenQ’s New webcam: ideaCam S1

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, 16^th October 2023 – Creative professionals are set to have their video conferencing quality move to the next level with the launch of the BenQ ideaCam S1 projector from BenQ, an all-in-one webcam designed specifically to deliver an enhanced video experience.

BenQ, the internationally renowned innovator of digital lifestyle devices, has launched the ideaCam S1 Pro to deliver high-quality and versatile video capabilities aimed at giving professional designers, developers and educators increased flexibility to empower creativity. 

As the balance between office and home working continues to transform daily lives, quality and consistency of technology used is key. The ideaCam excels in visuals, with consistent, balanced lighting with its built-in ring light, and it’s perfect for every handheld capture. It also offers a variety of creative options with its four shooting modes: Portrait, Desk View, Handheld, and 15X Macro View. 

While Portrait mode provides a familiar computer camera experience, Desk View enables an effortless display of objects or documents. The intelligent auto-flip feature seamlessly switches the webcam into a document camera, automatically rotating and focusing the image, keeping the picture at its best display. Handheld mode offers immersive close-ups, while the magnetic Macro lens provides a detailed 15X Macro View. 

Additionally, the 15X zoom lens effortlessly unveils the finest details, enhancing the overall creative experience. In addition to the robust visual features, the ideaCam is also equipped with an AI noise cancelling microphone to help professionals keep background noise to a minimum. 

Complementing the ideaCam's hardware features is the exclusive EnSpire software developed by BenQ - a visual presentation and communication platform that allows users to easily showcase documents, objects, and images with precision. With features like image freeze, zoom, live annotation, and measurement display, EnSpire brings creations to life and is compatible with popular platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet.

While other dual-mode desktop cameras exist, none offer the seamless integration of quality and versatility found in the BenQ ideaCam S1. With its multiple shooting modes, EnSpire visual software, and Control Puck, this All-In-One webcam, equipped with a webcam, document camera, and 15X zoom lens, empowers creators to efficiently showcase their work in an increasingly competitive online space.

The ideaCam is available now for purchase in the UK for RRP £169. For more information, please visit the www.benq.eu/en-uk/ideacam/supreme/s1-pro
