Taking photos thru console
ISight I always wondered, how about taking photos throught console? I mean, without using PhotoBooth. Making bash scripts that use the built-in camera would be awesome! One easy way is installing isightcapture . This is how you can use it $ ./isightcapture image.jpg will output a 640x480 image in JPEG format $ ./isightcapture -w 320 -h 240 -t png image.png will output a scaled 320x240 image in PNG format Note: S eems the project has been discontinued.
