Can you please suggest a HD webcam with inbuilt microphone for Android TV box

TestLink

Hi, I am looking for a HD webcam with inbuilt microphone for my Android TV box. Is there any specific brand like Logitech, Microsoft etc that would work on Android OS?

The applications I use on the Android TV box would be Google Meet, Zoom, Teams etc.

Any suggestions? Thanks...

Android can only work with a generic driver built into the OS. Most of the cams on the market will pull their own driver with Windows/OSX/Linux. On Android thats impossible.

Option A: Get a Tablet with HDMI out
Option B: NUC/Gigabyte Brix/Similar HTPC box

Chances are youll get stills out of most cams, but not much else.

I got the below camera for my android Sony Bravia TV.

Tested On Microsoft Teams which was sideloaded as no official android TV app. Video works fine but no zoom feature available on the sideloaded app. Yet to the mic working with the app but don't know if this is down to android compatability or the sideloaded app. Was just a quick tinker as haven't had time to look at it since.

Chances are one of the older model Microsoft live cams will work with the generic driver
