Abstract
A portable information handling system having an integrated display magnetically couples a peripheral camera to the integrated display with a ferromagnetic material disposed behind only a portion of the display, such as less than 10 percent of the integrated display area. In one embodiment, a ferromagnetic plate is disposed in the housing behind the display, the plate only a fractional area of the display. In another embodiment, a ferromagnetic material, such as an opposing polarity magnet of substantially the same circumference as the peripheral camera, is disposed behind the display and housing to attract the peripheral camera through both the display and housing. When the peripheral camera is detected at the display, one or both of the peripheral camera microphone and an integrated microphone of the information handling system are used to capture audio.
