I want to write a component that uses 2 webcams (1 integrated in my laptop , the other is a USB webcam) What do I need to know (or have) to build a component to deal with the cameras (capture , record , movement recognition , and other image and video processing) ? and how ? (with C++ or Delphi) I just need to know the concepts and main techniques , any good resources or source codes would be great :) Thank you .
