+the development of webcam applications, primarily on Linux but
+with an option to be ported to other platforms, in particular
+Solaris. It realizes part of what the unwritten Video4Linux user
+space library was always supposed to be: an easy to use library
+that shields its users from many of the difficulties and problems
+of using the V4L2 API directly.
