An AI-powered webcam named Insta360 Link has been introduced by action camera manufacturer Insta360. It differs significantly from other webcams available, though. Link has a gimbal technology from Insta360 that not only allows the webcam to move but also stabilises the shot. To learn more about the Insta360 Link, its features, and its pricing, keep reading.
Insta360 – Features
Let's start by talking about the device top end feature, a 3-axis gimbal. The Insta360 basically functions as a web camera on a gimbal, similar to a DJI OSMO Pocket, and this opens up a tonne of features. For instance, the Insta360 Link actually moves the gimbal arrangement to follow the user, using artificial intelligence to track the subject and maintain them in the frame. While it functions similarly to Apple "Center Stage" feature, the Insta360 Link actually features a motorised gimbal arrangement that moves the camera.

The camera intelligently zooms in and out, maintains the subject in the centre, and enables phase detection auto focus. The Link 1/2-inch sensor provides users with a decent image quality in low light and an HDR setting that balances the scene highlights and shadows. The camera is a fantastic live streaming or video conferencing camera because it can record in 4K resolution, which is the last but not least feature.
Insta360 – Price
Additionally, the Insta360 offers a variety of settings, such as a DeskView mode and a Whiteboard Mode. The latter focuses on the whiteboard and moves it to the centre of the video feed, whilst the former uses the gimbal and AI to take a top shot of the user's desk. Additionally, there is a portrait mode that enables users to record videos for Instagram and other social media sites. Hand motions can be used to switch between all of the modes. A noise-cancelling microphone and a built-in clip are included with the Insta360 Link. The 4K webcam costs $299.99 on the official website, which is about equivalent to €95. The business also offers international shipping.
