uh hello guys uh welcome to this video
0:02
so in this video I will show you a
0:04
Python package which is used to actually
0:07
show you the live webcam feed or you can
0:09
even record your own screen as well so
0:12
you can see it's a Python package uh
0:14
it's Twickinter package specifically
0:17
Twinter is a framework in Python to
0:19
build out desktop
0:21
applications so this is a package
0:23
specifically designed for trickinter
0:25
applications the name of the package is
0:28
trickenter webcam if you go to the
0:31
website here
0:33
pypi.org just search for this package
0:35
tricker
0:36
webcam so it actually displays a webcam
0:40
window in your tquinter GUI so it
0:44
basically makes the task way more easier
0:46
to actually get your access to your web
0:48
camera to directly show inside your
0:51
tricker application you don't need to
0:53
write the code from scratch instead you
0:56
can use this package simply execute this
0:59
command in the command line to install
1:00
this package i've already installed it
1:04
so now let me show you how to do this so
1:07
I will write this code step by step just
1:10
to show you how to get started here let
1:12
me close this application just built a
1:14
simple app py file and right here you
1:17
simply first of all import the base twin
1:20
package which comes inside your Python
1:24
installation you don't need to require
1:25
this module or install it and then from
1:29
Twickinter webcam this is actually the
1:31
third party package that we installed we
1:34
need to import
1:36
this class here which is
1:38
webcam after that we just need to create
1:41
the main window we can easily create
1:43
this TK TK like this and then we can set
1:47
the title of the window let's suppose I
1:49
say webcam
1:52
viewer and then after that we just need
1:54
to create the webcam box for creating it
1:57
we simply say webcam object webcam dot
2:01
we use this function box and here we
2:04
provide the window and then we actually
2:06
provide the width and the height of this
2:08
webcam you can set this to let's suppose
2:11
600 width and height is let's suppose
2:14
800 this will be the sizing of your web
2:17
camera which will show inside the window
2:19
and then we simply say webcam object dot
2:23
show
2:24
frames so this will actually render out
2:26
your web camera and then we need to
2:29
simply start the application so here we
2:32
write window dot main loop that's all
2:35
that we need to do guys this is all the
2:37
code here so if you run this application
2:40
you will actually see this will be the
2:42
web camera which will get started here
2:45
so by default my web camera is this one
2:47
so in your case your web camera will be
2:49
different so this is a very useful
2:52
package guys if you are building some
2:54
kind of a video recording or if you want
2:56
to show your web camera inside your
2:58
Twinter application this will be a
3:00
perfect package simply install it and
3:03
this will render your web camera inside
3:04
your tricker application so the
3:07
installation is pretty easy you install
3:10
the command and then you simply write
3:12
this code
3:13
so I've given this code in the
3:16
description of this video guys you can
3:19
