I used a Game Boy Camera for FaceTime video calls in iPadOS 17 and it was glorious

A major change introduced by iPadOS 17 that is going to make video creators and gamers happy is support for UVC (USB Video Class) devices, which means an iPad can now recognize external webcams, cameras, video acquisition cards, and other devices connected over USB-C. I started testing iPadOS 17 thinking this would be a boring addition I'd never use; as it turns out, it's where I had the most fun tinkering with different pieces of hardware this summer.

Most of all, however, I did not anticipate I'd end up doing FaceTime calls with a Game Boy Camera as my iPad Pro's webcam.

This is amazing.
