Manufacturer description
Orange Micro is first to market with the iBOT, a FireWire-based desktop video camera. iBOT harnesses the speed and power of FireWire unmatched by the slower USB-based web cams. In fact, the inexpensive iBOT uses the same IEEE 1394 technology built into pricey DV camcorders costing over 7 times as much. Orange Micro's iBOT is the desktop video camera providing crisp, clear video at a price you can afford.
With a data transfer rate that's 16 times faster than traditional USB web cams, you'll experience a Video Frame Rate of more than 30 frames/second - that's the same speed as you experience at your local movie theater. And that's with a big 640 x 480 image size in living color. With clarity only iBOT can provide, you can record and save super-crisp video in your home or office. Spice up important presentations with film clips. Hone your persuasion skills with instant video feedback. iBOT can make you a star! Record special family events, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving dinner, or even just everyday life. Produce your own documentaries. iBOT's 400 Mb/s data transfer speed lets you easily input, edit, and show-off movies with pride. The iBOT includes Video Teleconferencing software for both Mac and PC so you can talk to anyone, face-to-face, via the Internet, with a whole new level of clarity. Whether it's the grandparents, relatives, or old friends you haven't seen, only iBOT provides quality video conferencing unmatched by older USB web cams. Attach super-clear video clips to your email for a whole new dimension of communication. Show off brand-new additions to your family immediately! Send video greetings from Fiji!
