Question by ikriz · Jun 01, 2010 at 10:13 AM · inputpluginvideowebcammotion-tracking

Webcam Support in Unity (iSight or USB Camera)

I'm looking for something that can acquire video input from a builtin video camera (iSight on an iMac) or USB webcam.

Are there any free drivers/plugins out there that bring video input into Unity3d?

For andriod it's possible to use the Qualcomm AR package but that only enables a video camera on an Andriod device (as far as I know). What to use for $$anonymous$$ac or Windows with an iSight or general USB camera?

I've solved it myself now using the built-in WebCamTexture checkout my post on my site showing how to implement it http://www.ikriz.nl/2011/12/23/unity-video-remake/

@ikriz: First, thanks a lot for your work. I am trying to download the script from http://www.ikriz.nl/download/Webcam0.2.txt but that link seems to be broken. Could you let me know the exact url please? Also would your script work with unity4.3? I can't seem to find webcamTexture anywhere in the GUI though. Thanks again.

Jon Martin has got communication of flash video data via sockets to Unity working ! He's working on cleaning up the code and will release it sometime in the future.

You can try this. It uses an Air application (Flash) to get the cam feed and send it to unity via a socket connection...

this is indeed exactly what i'm trying to do.. problem is this is a custom made version of the Unity Web Player only for this specific project.

Bofswana uses a special version of the Unity webplayer, see this forum thread : http://forum.unity3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=51354☆t=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc.

Hi !

This demo http://www.ikriz.nl/2011/12/23/unity-video-remake/

But I think it could better to see the webcam of user that are connecting to the scene.

To see my own webcam is not really useful, don't you think ?
