StarTech has released the $259.99 HDMI to USB-C Video Capture Device (UVCHDCAP), which enables users to record video and audio directly to a Mac or Windows computer. It features automatic installation thanks to the use of UVC: USB Video Class Technology. 

The HDMI to USB-C Video Capture Device can be used to record meetings, presentations or conference calls to be uploaded or shared. Its compact, lightweight and rugged design also make it suitable for education or healthcare professionals who require mobility and video capture in various locations.
