First post

I have just setup this blog about a project I have been running for a while now: v4l4j. In short, the goal of v4l4j is to bring video capture capability & video device control to Java. It is an API through which a Java application can :

• enumerate capabilities of a video device, such as the supported image format, resolution and frame rate,
• setup a video device and capture images from it,
• enumerate video controls and act on them.

A lot more information is available on the website.

With this blog, I am hoping to post design ideas, future directions & improvements as well as keeping a changelog of updates to v4l4j.
