Webcam dll - I'm looking for a webcam dll that will enable me to show the webcam image at good resolution (800x600 say) and capture a still of high quality resolution ( I use Logtech pro9000) all within a DBPro exe. Any Ideas?

Movey,

The webcam biofeedback program is designed to work with webcams that can display 640 x 480 resolution.

lazerus,

You could recuperate with this software after overdosing on caffeine, then go for the next cuppa

Anyway, jokes aside. Biofeedback could be used as another form of input to games design (eg, Heart Math and Wild Divine).

I might release Webcam biofeedback as an API/SDK for DarkGDK in the future. It would enable you to create games where the webcam can track your heart rate variabililty - and to control or moderate whatever objects or variables in your game (the possibilities are endless).
