Video Calling Stand With LED & USB Charging
COVID-19 brought the world on its knees starting from 2020 restricting outdoor movement
and starting a brief era of work from home. This work from home culture relies heavily on
video calling for communication. Also online video platforms have boosted the need for
video recording which requires video recording and uploads.
The problems with video calling and video recording include maintaining phone alignment
and position. User needs to either hold phone in one arm to record or place on a stand on
the desk which can record video from bottom up showing users face chin up and ceiling in
background. Another issue is face lighting along with charging issue created by charging
cable length limitation.
This smart video calling stand provides the following advantages:
Phone height adjustment upto 35 centimetres
Phone Alignment adjustment
Universal phone holder for all smartphone compatibility
LED Light for smooth face lighting
USB Charging Port
LED Dimming Adjustment
The video calling/video recording stand is made using a strong round base with a steel rod
for durability with a soft light dimmable led. The rod allows for height adjustment of the
mobile phone holder as per user desires.
The smartphone holder also allows for alignment adjustment. The stand has an LED panel
mounted on top of the stand for lighting. The LED brightness can be dimmed by using a
variable resistor pot provided on the bottom of stand.
The stand consists of a power input socket with an adapter having a long wire to provide dc
supply to the stand. The input power is passed through voltage convertor to power the LED
and through a separate voltage converter to bring it to 5V and supply it to the USB port. The
USB port can then be used to power the mobile phone through charging cable.
The stand solves all problems associated with video calling and video recording including
height adjustment allowing for a face aligned video calling with proper lighting and nearby
charging port so low battery doesn’t disturb your video call/recording.
