Webcam

Hi folks
I want to write a programm which allows a user to control a webcam (zoom
in/out, rotate, ...) through the internet.
Can I buy any webcam or must it have special features so one can programm
it? Any recommendations ? Furthermore I think informations how a self-made
programm hast to communicate through a USB port would also be useful,
wouldn't it? Any website dealing with this topic (optimum: using c#)?
Thanks

What is your question about the ISO C++ Programming Language?

Hi, We have developped an client application in C#.

I just bought a new Dell, so I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. There is a built-in webcam. Im using the disc provided by Dell (Dell Webcam Software), however during the installation, a pop-up window says to make sure the webcam USB cable is connected to the computer. What does this mean? The webcam is already build-in to the computer? This is preventing the installation of the software. Thank you for you help

The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
