Haskell has bindings to USB [1]. I don't know of any USB tutorials or any webcam specific libraries. -deech [1] http://hackage.haskell.org/package/usb On 5/19/10, Eitan Goldshtrom wrote:

Hi everyone,

I would like to start working on a program that requires access to a camera attached to the computer probably via USB or otherwise internally. Unfortunately I don't know anything about using devices in haskell. I tried looking up how to access the microphone one too and had little success. Could someone just point me in the direction of tutorials for learning the basics of both devices in general as well as the webcam more specifically? The webcam is a bit more of a priority.

OpenCV and its Haskell bindings http://hackage.haskell.org/package/HOpenCV should be able to talk to a webcam. There's an O'Reilly book about OpenCV. Tom On Wed, May 19, 2010 at 10:06 PM, Eitan Goldshtrom wrote:
