Continue with the installation of webcam when I reached the lab. I discovered that in order to let the webcam to work we need to install a package which is GSPCA. It is a graphic driver which allow the webcam to work. Installed unicap to test the webcam, initially I used camstream but the software does not work so change to unicap. Finally, the webcam is working properly and ready for the lightdraw.
Write another c hello world program and compile but this time I save the file into 2 formats which are cpp and c. I tested with 2 different commands which are gcc for c and g++ for cpp.
After lunch, we were told to install lightdraw in our pc and make it worked on a projector. Me and hock attempt to setup everything by ourselves but we tried many time and the lightdraw just would not start. Ming Hong help us and lightdraw is setup on the projector and can be used. AFter that Ming Hong teaches us on the process of setting up lightdraw.
