Samsung has taken a run-of-the-mill 24-inch monitor and armed it with a 5MP webcam. With the new Scopia VC240 monitor, the South Korean electronic behemoth has enterprise users – those who wish to flash all their facial blemishes in intricate visual detail and strident glory during video conferencing sessions – in its sights. The webcam perched atop the Scopia VC240 has the ability to capture video in 720p resolution at 30fps, features H.264 compression and supports V2oIP.
As for the monitor itself, the specs are nothing you can boast about to anyone over the phone - or during a web conferencing session - after you have splurged $2000 on this ugly monitor. It features 1920x1080p full HD resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 16:9 aspect ratio and a 170 degree viewing angle.
