Razer’s Stargazer webcam is perfect for game streamers and Windows 10


Standalone webcams aren’t exactly exciting anymore, but Razer’s is a little unique. While Intel sells a developer kit for its RealSense 3D camera, Razer is bringing the technology to the masses with its Stargazer webcam.


It has three main tricks, and they’re perfect for streamers, gamers, and Windows 10 users. If you’re a regular user of Twitch then you’ll see a lot of streamers using green screens to remove their background surroundings. It’s a popular trick, but the Razer Stargazer will do it automatically thanks to the camera and software. It also records at 60fps, something that will definitely appeal to streamers.


RAZER'S WEBCAM USES INTEL REALSENSE

The second primary feature is a little more gimmicky. Razer is using the RealSense camera to enable gestures for games. We’ve seen this before with Kinect, but Razer’s approach seems to be designed to simply launch games with gestures or play titles that track facial expressions. That’s pretty basic, but you could imagine a future where you make a gesture to swap your load out in a game quickly or something that might save a little time.
