Asus lets loose business card-reading AF-200, MF-200 webcams
Our pals at Engadget Chinese first caught sight of these webcams way back at Computex earlier this year, but it looks like Asus' AF-200 and MF-200 cams are just now rolling out, at least in some parts of the world (exactly where isn't clear). Not surprisingly, there's not a whole lot that's changed since we last saw 'em, with each model boasting a 2 megapixel resolution, face-tracking, and a business card holder that'll let you line things up just right to take advantage of Asus' business card recognition software. The only difference between the two, it seems, is added auto focus on the AF-200 model. Still no word on a price for either one, unfortunately, but we'd expect to see these popping up for sale before too long.[Thanks, Michele]
ASUS webcams found at Computex by Engadget Chinese
Our brothers-from-another-mother over at Engadget Chinese have spotted some more nifty gear at Computex: the first webcams from ASUS. The 2-megapixel cams interpolate still shots up to 8 megapixels, and can fold up into "business card mode" for quickly scanning in all the digits you'll be picking up, you sexy bastard. The auto-focus AF-200 is scheduled to drop in mid-August, while the manual MF-200 should follow afterwards. A full gallery awaits you at Engadget Chinese.
