Flipped-Open-Cam

Lunch break. Its pretty outside. The sun gleams on my table inviting me outside. I'd like to sit on a park bench and check on some reports as i simultaneously munch on my peanut butter sandwich. I strategically pick a bench with the best possible view. Flip my laptop open. Damn the screen is located right in front of my view. But it does not obstruct me, because my laptop has a small cam integrated on the back of my screen with an aperture that perfectly fits the size of my screen (though the lens are much much smaller) my desktop image is replaced by a constant stream of live footage of the world in front of me, trees, green grass, animals playing fetch. My desktop icons are there too, but seem to be floating. If I want to get some serious work I can just open an application, but for those in between moments, after checking my emails, creating a word document, I don’t have to flip my screen back down to see what’s happening in the world around me.

Oh and while we are at it, why cant laptops have an integrated web cam above the keyboard so that I can video conference without the need to first attach my external cam?
