Opal's Tadpole: The Compact Webcam Revolutionizing Video Chats
TL;DR Summary
Opal has launched the Tadpole, an ultra-portable webcam with 4K image quality. Measuring at 1.2 inches squared and weighing 45 grams, it is designed to be used with laptops and features a built-in clamp-style clip. The Tadpole uses a 4K, 48MP Sony IMX582 sensor and includes an AI-powered directional microphone that filters out background noise.
