The SightLight is a bus-powered, auto-sensing light designed for use with the Apple iSight camera.
SightLight's custom-designed Fresnel-based lens carefully adds a direct but diffused light to the subject directly in front of the camera (you). This added illumination improves skin tone coloration and evens out the shadows caused by inconsistent directional room lighting.
