The two biggest problems during video calls are lighting and field of view. The light may be ideal, but it doesn't help you if all you can see is your friend's chin. Because these small problems, which are so typical of video communication, got on the nerves of the team from the Swedish company Frankly, they created the ViW attachment. ViW boasts a dual lens and provides a 50% wider field of view than conventional webcams. It does this without distorting or "distorting" the image in any way.
ViW it is attachment for web cameras in computers, tablets and smartphones (connects via Bluetooth technology), which allows them to "breathe with full lungs" and for us to see the whole picture. Most webcams have a relatively narrow line of sight, which increases with this device by 50 percent.
After that issue was resolved and everything came into frame, it was for the team Frankly important to ensure that poor light conditions do not negate this progress. That's why ViW has built-in sensors for detecting ambient light with which it recognizes the brightness in the room and according to the state of the "scene" illuminates optimally with LEDs.

Charging the ViW device, which can work up to four hours (held upright by a lithium polymer battery), passes through USB cable, and is compatible with practically all mobile devices and screens. Frankly will send its "gadget" soon on Kickstarter, and then the prices and the first delivery dates will also be known.
