You can find readers designed specifically for SD cards, as well as other

types. Plenty of readers can handle multiple media formats. Many computers

come with a decent built-in SD card reader (see Figure 10-37).

Webcams

Cameras in or on computer monitors, often called webcams because their

most common use is for Internet video communication, enable people to

interact over networks with both voice and video. Webcams range greatly in

quality and price.

Webcams vary in both image and sound capture quality. Because

webcams are mostly used for video chat, they tend to be marketed similar to

other video cameras using terms like 720p, HD, and 4K. The most common

dedicated webcams today provide 1080p HD resolution experience, with

cameras integrated into laptops often being 720p.

NOTE Unfamiliar with terms such as 1080p? Pixels? All is covered in

Chapter 17.
