Photo booth capture type software

RobFuller · 26-08-2008, 03:40 PM

I’m trying to find a nice simple bit of software for someone; they wanted to capture photos of students which will go into our main MIS, Library and NUS systems. They just simply want to click the capture button then it asks for file name which they can then put either student name or ID into the file name so they know who the photos belong to afterwards.

They find using the MS Windows capture wizard to slow and they get themselves very confused with it.

I just hope someone might have come across something like this.

TIA

I find the software that comes with webcams normally quite good, we'll be using the one that came with our Logitech webcam to do our ID cards this September.

The software that came with our Logitech's does do capturing but they still complain they have to rename files after it has saved it to the file location.

Maybe I’ll get them to keep that folder open and rename as they are saved.

Mmm... I can understand their point, I'm not sure how we'll cope with this to be honest.

Oh, I know why, we're only doing staff so the filename isn't important as we'd go through and put in their initials afterwards as we know who they are, for lots of children I can't imagine it.
