Since the COVID-19 pandemic took the globe by storm, working from home has become a necessity for many. As working from home has become more ubiquitous, so has the need for quality communication gear for both personal use and for businesses. That’s where the eMeet C960 comes in. eMeet is well-known for designing quality, reliable, and affordable PC communication peripherals. The C960 is eMeet’s latest offering to help you stay organized, communicative, and social as you work from home.

1. Full HD, 30FPS video

Of course, the primary purpose of a webcam is to capture video accurately and clearly, without any hassle. The C960 can capture crisp 1080p 30FPS video so you can be sure that your coworkers, friends, and family won’t miss a thing. The combination of 30FPS and 1080p means that any action is caught clearly, without loss of detail or clarity. Additionally, the 4-layer anti-glare lens means that you can be confident that there is no light-bleed from your screen, lights in the room, or errant rays of the sun that make their way into your meetings.

2. Dual omnidirectional microphones

Video is only half the battle when it comes to a great webcam. If the other party can’t hear you, then what’s the point? Luckily, eMeet has gone the extra mile here and outfitted the C960 with two microphones. They are also equipped with noise-canceling technology to remove unwanted sound and capture only what you need.

This omnidirectional mic setup is a great feature, as you no longer need to be positioned directly in front of the camera to be heard clearly. This is particularly handy when it comes to multiple people being in the frame at once, as the mic doesn’t miss anyone.

3. 90-degree wide-angle lens

One thing that we have all become tired of having to do is readjust, zoom, or pivot a webcam in order to get everyone visible. This is especially annoying during video conferences with multiple people. eMeet has sought to eliminate this annoyance by providing an ultra-wide 90-degree field of view lens for the C960.

This allows the camera to capture a broad view, meaning that even when the subject is close up, you can still see everything going on in the background. This means less detail is lost and gives you a clearer image while capturing a wide frame.

4. eMeetLink software suite

In order to get the most out of any webcam, a certain amount of control and adjustment is preferred. eMeet has provided this in the form of their lightweight, easy-to-use software packet, eMeetLink. This allows you to quickly and easily change settings and preferences on the fly, making for a streamlined and simple system to help you get the most out of the C960 webcam. With the software suite, you can adjust the brightness, contrast, sharpness, saturation, and white balance. Or, you can leave the device with its default settings and let the webcam take care of itself.

The ability to adjust different settings without having to cancel a call or unplug the webcam is a game-changer for productivity, meaning you can spend less time messing around with your computer, and more time on the important things.

5. Fixed focal length

To further streamline the webcam experience, the C960 is equipped with a dizzying 1.97 -197 inch focal length. This means that everything within that range will be kept in focus at all times. Gone are the days when you had to wait for buggy autofocus to decide what needs to be visible. With this vast focal length, you need not worry about whether the people you’re talking to can see what you need them to see. Just start the call and rest assured that nothing will be missed.

6. Plug-and-play connectivity

One of the most convenient features of the eMeet C960 is the lack of drivers. Just plug it into whatever device you want, and it will be automatically recognized and start working. This is a lifesaver when it comes to working from home, as those who are at home without access to tech support no longer have to worry about pesky compatibility issues.

Additionally, the quick and painless set-up experience means that moving the webcam between devices becomes far easier than it used to be. All you need to do is plug it in and begin using it, no messing around required.

7. Classy, professional design

We can consider ourselves eternally thankful that the days of bulbous, shiny, and spherical webcams are behind us. We no longer have to endure cyclops-esque designs that look equal parts ridiculous and ugly. It would appear that eMeet agrees as they have designed the C960 with a slim, black aesthetic.

This allows it to seamlessly fit in with any pre-existing setup and keep the focus on what’s happening on the screen, instead of the camera bolted to the top. The matte-black design lends a professional look to the device, meaning that it is fully suitable for any environment, be it an executive’s office, or a gamer’s bedroom. The circle of glossy black that surrounds the lens provides a small hint of flair that prevents the design from veering over into ‘boring’ territory.

8. Secure, adjustable mount

The eMeet is equipped with a novel folding mechanism that allows it to fit on any computer monitor, regardless of the shape and size. Additionally, the mount is covered in grippy rubber, keeping the camera in place and preventing it from scratching the back of the monitor. The camera body itself is mounted on a hinge with a huge range of motion. This allows you to perfectly adjust the view, regardless of how tall your monitor is, or how far away the subject is.

All these features come together to make the eMeet C960 a complete all-in-one webcam solution, perfect for working from home, video conferencing, and catching up with friends. If you’re interested in getting a C960, check them out here.
