The JLab JBuds USB Webcam is a compact and versatile camera designed for clear video communication. Featuring a 1/2.7"-Type CMOS sensor with 2.1 MP resolution, it delivers crisp 1080p video at up to 30 fps, complemented by a wide 93° field of view and auto-focus for sharp images from 0 to 11.8 inches. Its dual omnidirectional microphones capture audio with a frequency range of 30 Hz to 8 kHz, making it ideal for video calls, online meetings, and content creation across Windows, macOS, and Chrome OS platforms.
