Intrado’s global technology and communication services are built on precision, clarity, and connection. For IT managers, the shift to hybrid and remote work made one thing clear: consistent, high-quality communication is non-negotiable. But for professionals who rely on large primary monitors for daily tasks, standard webcam placement created an invisible wall between them and their virtual counterparts - literally looking over people’s heads during meetings.
The Challenge of Eye Contact with Large Monitor Setups
Modern workstations are optimized for productivity, but not for face-to-face connection. With webcams often perched above high-resolution, oversized monitors, video calls lack one vital human ingredient: eye contact. This misalignment makes it difficult to build rapport, reduces perceived attentiveness, and can subtly erode trust in client and team interactions. For IT professionals, whose roles hinge on both technical expertise and effective communication, this disconnect presents a real obstacle.
I have a station for daily work and my primary monitor is large. I am always looking up to see my Zoom meeting attendees. This iContact Camera Pro solves the natural eye contact issue and is more advanced than I was expecting.
