Realistically do most people even have separate webcams at home?

I know I don't, but there's at least 5 smartphones somewhere in the house. Harnessing those cameras via wifi is pretty useful.

I don't have a separate webcam, but I use my Pixel 2 as an OBS webcam with DroidCamX with much better quality that a fancy $200 Logitech webcam. There is a similar app for iOS. Even better, you can use multiple phones for different angles or to point to a notepad.
