All premium keyboards offer Logitech’s innovative SetPoint™ software, which enables one-touch access to
a variety of common tasks, including launching music software, accessing the Internet, and starting a chat with
Instant Messenger software.
Voice and Video Communications
Web Cameras
Logitech’s industry-leading QuickCam®webcams make it easy for friends and family to keep in touch by
seeing and talking to each other using their computers. We work closely with leading application developers to
help deliver the video communications services and software that connect consumers and create demand for
webcams. In addition, our Logitech Video EffectsTM avatars and face accessories software has become a favorite
application for users wishing to record and post video to Web sites, with more than 12 million downloads from
www.logitech.com since its introduction in 2005.
In fiscal year 2007, Logitech introduced the QuickCam Ultra Vision™ webcam, offering a true-to-life video
calling experience by delivering twice the image clarity as that offered by typical webcams. This webcam
features the new Logitech RightLight 2 Technology – a system of hardware and software technologies designed
to optimize video settings in low-light and uneven lighting environments.
Logitech’s performance webcams – the QuickCam Ultra Vision, QuickCam Fusion™, QuickCam Orbit™
and QuickCam Pro 5000 products – now include Logitech RightLight 2 Technology and the ability to record HD
video.
Our redesigned QuickCam software is included with all new webcams, complete with a new icon-based
interface allowing easier access to all of the camera’s settings and features, including the popular Logitech Video
Effects software.
We also expanded our line of webcams for the notebook PC market with the introduction of the QuickCam
Deluxe for Notebooks and QuickCam for Notebooks.
PC Headsets, Microphones and VoIP Handsets
We offer headsets, microphones and handsets designed for applications such as PC voice communications,
Voice-over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) applications and online gaming. The Logitech Premium Notebook
Headset is designed to enhance the experience of using Internet calling applications such as Skype®, with a
noise-canceling microphone, convenient in-line volume and mute controls, and the flexibility of connecting via
digital USB ports or traditional analog (3.5 mm) ports.
The Logitech QuickCallTM USB Speakerphone delivers premium voice quality in a speakerphone by using a
two-microphone array – one on each side of the wing-shaped phone – that can capture voices and sounds from a
wider area in a room, transmitting even whispers from several feet away.
The Logitech Cordless Internet Handset makes using Skype on the PC as easy as using an ordinary cordless
telephone, offering a crystal-clear calling experience at up to 164 feet (50 meters) from the PC. The Skype
Certified™ handset supports the key Skype calling functions.
