CTOnews.com, October 14 (Xinhua)-- Google has introduced a new feature in Android 14 that allows mobile cameras to be used as webcams for desktops or laptops. Technology media Android Police recently tested the feature and found that there is still a big gap compared with Apple's "continuous interworking camera".

CTOnews.com Note: continuous interworking camera (Continuity Camera) is a feature launched by Apple that uses iPhone as a webcam for Mac and uses iPhone's powerful camera system to achieve effects that ordinary webcams can't do in the past.

On Android 14, a new option for "webcam" pops up after users connect their phone to the PC through a USB cable.

Another requirement is to support USB Video Class (UVC), which allows your phone to act as a webcam on platforms such as Windows, Linux, and even macOS.

However, Android 14's current feature is not perfect, limited to 720p, and the overall look is blurred. If you plan to use a 2x clipped view, the effect will be worse.

In addition, there are no additional improvements to Android 14's webcam. Apple's continuous Interchange camera has Center Stage mode, which uses AI to automatically detect the person's position and keep the person in the center of the screen by moving and zooming the lens.

In addition, in some rare cases, such as when there is no appropriate theme in the picture, the real-time video begins to blur and lose focus.
