Abstract

An information handling system peripheral camera is built in a cylindrical housing, such as an extruded aluminum cylinder, having a bottom portion rotationally coupled to an upper portion by a hinge to act as a bracket that couples the peripheral camera to a display upper surface. A bracket disposed in the housing and exposed by rotation of the bottom portion to an open position rests on the display upper surface to rotate for varied camera tilt. The bottom portion leverages against a rear surface of the display to hold the camera in position.
