Motivation
OpenCV has not been ported to Python3. We need a Python3 library for getting images from a webcam. Gstreamer might work.
Good Vibrations
Gstreamer 1.0 works in Python3 and is based on GTK3.
Status
- Web cam example (see references below) works on Fedora 18, GTK3, and Python3.
- Need to figure out how to capture a single image.
- Need to figure out how to process single image to find points of interest (this may require a different API, such as NumPy from SciPy)
