A new version of ucanvcam has been released (download from the usual place). The most interesting addition is an effect that lets you take a blender-based design created on the picture mixer and project your webcam feed onto a surface or surfaces within that. Video examples coming soon…

Update: video example is available.

Version 0.1.3 of ucanvcam is out. It fixes a few issues on Windows, and makes a start for a command-line interface as an alternative to the graphical interface (particularly handy on linux). If you are looking for source code, you’re better off taking it from svn, since it is changing rapidly. The numbered versions are more important for the Windows builds.

ucanvcam version 0.1.2 (aka “just barely usable”) is out. MakeSweet is hosting a windows build. ucanvcam is a free-and-open-source virtual webcam project. It currently compiles under windows and linux. On windows it can output via directx to applications such as skype. On linux it can output via a video loopback module, again to applications such as skype. It has some random limits though at the moment (hint: 320×240 images). Screenshot:

Update: there’s now a proper windows installer.
