<h3>Core Features</h3>

<p>
<ul>
<li><b>Simple and thread-safe API</b> - write only few lines of code and start capturing images.</li>
<li><b>Work standalone</b> - no additional software has to be installed to use it.</li>
<li><b>System independent</b> - it will run without problems on most widely used operating systems - Windows (2k/XP/Vista/7, both 32- and 64-bit), Linux (x86, x64 and 32-bit ARM) and Mac OS X.</li>
<li><b>Build-in video driver</b> - default build-in video grabber is provided, so you don't need to install any additional software (such as JMF, etc).</li>
<li><b>Implementation independent</b> - write your code once and don't care which capture framework you will be using in future (LTI-CIVIL, JMF, QTJ, etc).</li>
<li><b>Automated resources management</b> - you do not have to remember to deallocate resources used by your capturing device, library will always do that for you (while VM has been closed gracefully).</li>
<li><b>Simple and thread-safe API</b> - write only few lines of code is enough to start capturing images.</li>

<li><b>System independent</b> - it will run without problems on most widely used operating systems - Windows (2k/XP/Vista/7, both 32- and 64-bit), Linux (x86, x64), ARM devices (e.g. Raspberry Pi at Arch Linux), and Mac OS X.</li>
<li><b>Implementation independent</b> - write your code once and if you find better driver in future, just wrap it in WebcamDriver class and don't care about any code changes.</li>
<li><b>Resources management</b> - you do not have to remember to deallocate resources used by your capturing device, library will always do that for you.</li>
<li><b>Motion detector</b> - build in motion detector makes it easy to implement motion detecting features.</li>
<li><b>Available in Maven Central</b> - it is available in Maven Central so your project can be deployed there too.</li>
<li><b>Available from Maven Central</b> - it is available in Maven Central and therefore will not suddenly disappear.</li>
<li><b>Re-streamer</b> - simple JPEG/MJPEG re-streamer is build in, just run it and enjoy hosting your live stream.</li>
<li><b>Swing ready</b> - contains Swing component to display images, together with painter API and thread-safe API which prevents Swing EDT from blocking issues when using camera.</li>

<h2>Contribute</h2>

<p>
If you have spare time, knownledge or even some small money amount
to spent, you can help developing awesome Webcam Capture API and make
it even better! Several kinds of contributions are very welcome:
</p>

<p>
<ul>
<li><b>Report</b> - if you've found a bug or you've came-up with
some fantastic feature which
can make Webcam Capture a better API to use, don't hesitate to
<a href="https://github.com/sarxos/webcam-capture/issues/new">create new issue</a>
where you can describe in details what the problem is, or what would you
like to improve.</li>
<li><b>Test</b> - since Webcam Capture use native code, it's very
hard to cover all supported operating systems. I'm always testing it
on 64-bit Ubuntu Linux, Windows XP and Vista (both 32-bit), but I
have no possibility to test on Raspberry Pi, Mac OS and 32-bit Linux.</li>
<li><b>Code</b> - if you know Java or C++ you can help developing
Webcam Capture by <a href="https://github.com/sarxos/webcam-capture">forking repository</a>
and sending pull requests. </li>
<li><b>Donate</b> - people have expressed a wish to donate a little
money. Donating won't get you anything special, other than a warm
feeling inside, and possibly urge me to produce more freely
available material for Webcam Capture project. You can
donate via PayPal by sending money to songo.bercik@interia.pl, or
by the donation button below.<br/><br/>
