Hello Friends,

I wanted to develop an application that would capture an image through web cam and store the image on client machine and its path in the database.(SQL Server 2005)

The application should work as follows:

1)On the click of start button the web cam should start.
2)On the click of capture button the image should get captured.
3)On the click of stop button the web cam should stop.

I found an application on net but I am not able to connect to web cam through my application.

Can anybody provide me with the code for this?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanking in advance.

What error you get while you try to connect?
Just go through yesterdays' post if not all, there was a question for integrating Webcam to Application

Of course, ASP.NET can not do this for you, you will need to write some sort of add in, probably in C++, and just host it in your web site. I think you can use Flash, too, or perhaps Silverlight, but in both cases, your users need to install a plug in.
