face cam
Broadcaster's video feed
A face cam is a camera positioned to capture a person's face during a livestream or video recording, typically showing their reactions in a small overlay while gameplay or other content fills the main screen.
Common in gaming streams and YouTube videos: I keep my face cam in the corner so viewers can see my reactions.
The term combines "face" with "cam" (camera), distinguishing it from cameras capturing gameplay or other content.
