A webcam is a small camera that connects to your computer or laptop and sends video/audio signals over the internet. Webcams are typically used for personal applications such as Skype calls, streaming on Twitch, or recording videos. On the other hand, a conference camera is designed specifically for large-scale meetings, lectures and conferences where several people need to be seen at once. These cameras tend to be more expensive than webcams due to their advanced features like panning and tilting capabilities which allow them to capture an entire room with ease. Additionally, conference cameras feature higher resolution imaging than most webcams in order to provide better video quality during long sessions of video conferencing.
