Notes:
When changing the background, make sure that:
•
the actual background is static. There should
be no movement within the WebCam field
of view. Not even the movement of a
curtain.
•
there is sufficient light in the room. The
better the lighting conditions, the better the
performance of the ‘Change Your
background’ feature.
•
lighting conditions are not changed. Even a
slight change in the lighting conditions will
negatively influence the image.
•
the colors of the cloths you wear are not
the same as the background color.
•
the WebCam does not move, even the
slightest movement will negatively influence
the image.
Use the tuning slider ‘
’ to
optimize image quality.
