Easy to use
There is no user training required as the camera is Plug & Play and can be used with most onboard camera apps i.e. Windows Camera, macOS QuickTime and Chrome OS Camera. Portable and lightweight, it can be used without its base by plugging the flexible camera neck directly into a USB port. The camera’s adjustable neck allows you to choose your favorite position for video conferencing, sharing documents and live demonstrations.

Multi-purpose
Perfect for education, office and home whether you’re using it for homeschooling, online tutoring, working from home, remote monitoring, making instructional videos, animating, gaming or giving live demos. The all-in-one HUE HD Pro camera contains everything you need to capture quality photos and video recordings without requiring an external microphone, tripod, or lights.

High-quality integrated microphone and LED lights
The built-in microphone is perfect for recording a music lesson, podcast, or gaming session as well as for distance learning, online classes, streaming or video calls with family and friends. The microphone features noise reduction/cancellation and a sampling rate of 8000/16000Hz. In darker conditions the LED lights provide illumination for greater visibility. Simply tap on the head of the camera to switch them on and off.

Manual focus and magnification
The camera can capture a US letter/A4 page or a demonstration. The camera can act as a basic microscope, display Math manipulatives or, for example, demonstrate how a calculator is being used. Enable SEN students, or those with visual impairments, to fully participate in their classes by enlarging small objects or text. Maximum capture area: A3. The camera’s optical lens has a focus range of 1cm ~ infinity. The manual focus can be used to magnify moving or handheld objects without the continuous automatic adjustments which occur with an autofocus lens. The camera is perfect for close-up work where it is difficult or dangerous for everyone to watch at the same time, for example a science experiment or where social distancing is required.

Built to last
This hard-wearing, durable camera is designed to withstand many years of use in a busy classroom, home or office.

Software
Included with the camera is HUE Intuition for Windows and macOS. This software is a camera management app for capturing and annotating images, recording video with sound and flipping or mirroring the live feed. Included is a perpetual single user license for installation on multiple computers.
