At the end of the video, he tried it with his friend who's not using the apparatus. Yet, her eyes seem to be looking at him too. What do you think?

[thomasahle]

Me too. I felt like she was looking more into my eyes than he was.

Maybe I've just gotten too used to video calls...

That was actually my initial reaction too.

I've found if people are just a lil bit further away from their camera they appear to be looking at me anyways.

A conference call should be like a conference table wrt how big their head should appear, once you reach that distance I really can't tell you aren't looking directly into the camera

First, I think that's his mum because the video said it was his mum.

Second, I think it doesn't look like her eyes are directed at the camera like his, because they are not.
