This tech has existed for decades, video phones have been launched several times over and over in history…. and failed every time, the reason is that almost nobody actually cares to see a damn video of someone’s face while talking to them.
How often does someone on a PS3 or 360 video chat over voice chat, even if they have a camera?
They even tried vidoe calling on cellphones a few years ago….. and abandoned it because nobody cared.

I thnk historically video quality due to cost of bandwidth and quality has been poor on the uptake. With various factors changing, not least the restriction on travel for many now with cost and regulatory restrictions plus improved technology you will see a massive change in the coming years. Check out Cisco’s Telepresence. This is becoming incredibly popular in industry, This will be available in the home within a few years.

Videophones have been available in homes over the years, multiple times.
People just never cared for them, it wasn’t so much an issue of quality rather than need.
As I said, it was available on cellphones, but nobody really cared for it.
Telepresence is a little different than just a simple videophone as it usually means a physical mobile component or at least digital control over the location, not just transmitting video.

For me, it’s not that I don’t care…. I actually feel awkward and exposed when I’m video conferencing. In the presence of someone else, I can pick up on emotional and situational cues, and I can also look to see who’s watching me. Over a video however, I’m really limited. I’m not sure who’s watching me and when. It’s a matter of comfort, and you cannot have comfort over a recorded video presence.

No it would not need to do it. The UV would light the trought the film to the correct size. Watch that part again. You do not need to flip the film at all. It exposured just like the view would show. The thing would be as you say if you would need to flip the film and the UV would not exposure through the paper.
