Umm, do you happen to have dyslexia? Lol, just kidding.


1. All ready said i was going to use Linux(Debian)
2. I know that.
3. I know that it is not a beginners project. It was either program the whole thing in QBasic(which would be impossible), or learn C(which i know is possible).

I think you will wind up in assembly language but that is only my opinion.

Good luck.

Eww. Assembly sounds like bad news... Oh well, i am learning assembly at the moment also, so it might not be too big of a deal...

I've seen nothing here to suggest why that would be.

The only part which involves the hardware (and thus any possible reason you could have for using asm) is grabbing the frames in the first place.
If the cameras are common enough, then there's likely to be a Linux driver out there already to drive it.

The rest of the problem (machine vision) is just some really serious algorithmic work.
