Abstract
A camera integrates a magnet at one end of a housing to magnetically attract and attach the camera to a front side of a peripheral display, such as to support a video conference through an information handling system interfaced with the display. A camera dock couples to a top side of the display and includes a back privacy support having an area that blocks the camera module from accepting external light when the camera is placed in the dock with the camera module aligned towards the back privacy support. An end user places the camera with a field of view directed in front of the display to capture visual images and flips the camera module to face the back privacy support to secure the camera against capture of visual images.
