In this tutorial, we will be building a jQuery and PHP powered photobooth. It will allow your website visitors to take a snapshot with their web camera and upload it from a neat CSS3 interface.
As you might know, it is not possible to access web cameras and other peripheral devices directly from JavaScript (and it won’t be for some time). However there is a solution to our problem – we can use a flash movie. Flash has perfect web camera support, and is installed on nearly all internet – enabled computers.
The solution we are going to use for this app is webcam.js. It is a JavaScript wrapper around flash’s API that gives us control over the user’s webcam.
