[Pythonmac-SIG] real-time video capturing and processing

[Michael Graber]

hi all,

first: theres a library called VideoCapture for Win32 environments  
which makes it possible to access video-capture devices. is there  
something similar for macs?

second: i would like to do real-time video-processing (like bright- 
spot detection, movement detection, ...) using images recorded by a  
webcam. is python suited to do so? any references?

i appreciate your hints to this quite crude question.

best,
michael
