RAZER Kiyo Pro Webcam

The Razer Kiyo Pro is a USB camera with a powerful Adaptive Light Sensor that delivers the best image quality even in low light conditions. Combining an ultra-sensitive CMOS sensor with STARVIS technology, the Kiyo Pro provides professional image quality for video conferencing and streaming.

As working from home has become the norm in business, the demand for better image quality in video calls has increased. Built-in laptop cameras lack the resolution and frame rates for professional-looking meetings. In addition, most webcams struggle with poor lighting, producing a weak and blurry video image. This can negatively affect a professional presentation. The Kiyo Pro solves these problems with a powerful Adaptive Light Sensor. This sensor ensures excellent images in virtually all lighting conditions.

For both video conferencing and streaming, smooth and crystal clear video quality in all lighting conditions is an important part of the experience," said Alvin Cheung, Senior Vice President of Razer's peripherals division. "The Kiyo Pro, with its good low-light performance, is ideal for home workers who want to impress their clients and colleagues, as well as streamers who want to entertain their audiences with a clear, vivid image."

High-quality, true-to-life image:
At the heart of the new Kiyo Pro is the advanced Type 1/2.8 CMOS sensor with STARVIS technology. STARVIS is a pixel technology in which light is projected from behind. This technology is used in surveillance camera CMOS sensors to produce high-quality images in visible and near-infrared light. By incorporating this technology in the Kiyo Pro, the image during video meetings will always be crisp and clear. This is true even under the most challenging lighting conditions typical of many home users, such as a dim room, bright light, backlit or screen-only conditions.

The Kiyo Pro supports uncompressed full HD 1080p 60FPS, for true-to-life images and detail. HDR 30FPS mode increases dynamic range, correcting under- or over-exposed areas and preventing silhouettes when the subject is exposed from behind. This ensures vivid colors and even exposure across the entire image.

The wide-angle lens on the Kiyo Pro offers a choice of three viewing angles: 103°, 90° or 80°, making it ideal for video meetings or streaming. The 103° field of view is wide enough to capture everyone in a group chat or allow viewers of a stream to clearly see live activity. The 80° angle of view is perfect for professional headshots or a facecam while streaming.

Flexible and fast:
The Kiyo Pro has a range of additional features so it can be adapted to any setup and situation. With flexible mounting options for a monitor, tabletop or tripod, the Kiyo Pro can be used as a streaming camera regardless of available space. The wide viewing angle and tripod mount make the Kiyo Pro ideal for group meetings, and the 16bit, omni-directional stereo microphone ensures that the voices of all participants are captured.

For maximum uncompressed video performance, the Kiyo Pro uses a USB 3.0 connection to transmit a 5GB/s signal. A separate privacy cover is included to both protect the lens and ensure user privacy when the camera is not in use.
