This recognition is a testament to our team's dedication to thoughtful design and inspires us to continue developing intelligent imaging solutions that make a meaningful difference in people's lives."

OBSBOT Meet Flip: Bringing Privacy and Performance Together

Designed for hybrid work and everyday video communication, OBSBOT Meet Flip features an innovative folding mechanism that combines physical privacy protection and power control in a single action. Unfolding the webcam powers it on, while folding it closed covers the lens, eliminating the need for separate privacy covers or software controls.

Measuring just 41.6 × 45 × 18.8 mm and weighing approximately 38 grams, Meet Flip combines portability with professional imaging capabilities. Equipped with a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor and F1.8 aperture, it supports 4K video capture, while its intelligent dual-microphone system and AI-powered features help deliver clear audio and simplify everyday operation. The webcam is available for US$119.

In its official evaluation, the GOOD DESIGN AWARD jury praised OBSBOT Meet Flip for combining privacy protection and high image quality within an exceptionally compact design.

The jury particularly highlighted the innovative integration of the folding mechanism with the lens cover and clip structure, recognizing its original engineering, refined minimalist details, and meticulous attention to color, material, and finish (CMF). The judges also commended its inclusion of a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor and F1.8 aperture at an accessible price point.

The award reinforces OBSBOT's commitment to human-centered innovation, combining advanced imaging technology with thoughtful design to make professional video communication more intuitive, accessible, and secure.

About OBSBOT

Founded in 2016, OBSBOT focuses on Autonomous Imaging, driven by the mission to achieve "Imaging Freedom for All." We believe that at its core, imaging is about the pure freedom to capture and communicate. It should never be restricted by complex operations, steep learning curves, or expensive gear. Technology delivers its ultimate value when it remains invisible and serves people—and we are here to define the future of imaging experience through innovation.

By seamlessly integrating our three core technologies—AI algorithms, motion control, and optical synergy — we have built an end-to-end AI Autonomous Imaging system. Spanning everything from hardware capture and smart control platforms to content storage and sharing, this ecosystem drastically lowers the barrier to both professional creation and human connection. Today, backed by over 140 patents, our technology and user experience are trusted by creators in more than 150 countries and regions worldwide.

Moving forward, OBSBOT will continue to lead the autonomous imaging industry, empowering everyone to create effortlessly, express themselves freely, and achieve true Imaging Freedom for All.
