I recently did a project in WinXP with a webcam, PD, and GEM and it worked beutifully. I was able to have 9 concurrently running captures and 3D without a decent framerate. I think there are some GEM picture analysis objects, but I'm not familiar with them. PDP+PiDiP on Linux is the best way to do this, but WinXP and GEM, perhaps with an OSC connection to something like Eyesweb will work. I used a Logitech Quickcam.

hi vasily
i did this kind of things (colordetection) with pd and pdp+pidip. it works like a charm and it's fast, even if you use an object multiple times, in my case 17. it's linux and macOSX only. but i think you should give dynebolic (dynebolic.org) a try, it's a linux live-cd and i think the mentioned software should run without installing anything. http://ydegoyon.free.fr/pidip.html
if there is no 3D involved i think you rather take this then using gem. most people i know working with linux and webcams are using the ones from philips. i think 740 (yellow rubber focus, not red) but i tried logitech and it worked as well, have a look on the supported models list of the pwc-driver: http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/
if you need to stay on win i don't have much idea what to use, probably eyesweb could do this kind of things. (OSC communication with pd)

Hi list, My friend is doing a project where he will need to process the image from a webcam in realtime, to detect changes in the color of certain areas within it's view. I thought PD/GEM might be a good tool for this. Has anyone had any experience, working with webcams from PD? Which webcams are the easiest to connect to PD? What other externals/packages will I need? Thank you in advance, Best regards, Vasily mailto: kvas at naumen dot ru

P.S. BTW, the OS used will most likely be WinXP
