SmartCam verandert een Symbian Reeks 60 telefoon met bluetooth en camera in een webcam klaar om met uw PC te gebruiken. Het is open bronsoftware, die onder GPLv2 vergunning wordt gegeven en zal op Linux of Vensters lopen. Er zijn commerciële toepassingen die het zelfde ding zullen doen, maar ik geloof in het gebruiken van en het steunen van vrije, open bronsoftware waar mogelijk.
In dit leerprogramma zal ik SmartCam op Fedora 9 installeren aangezien de ontwikkelaar SmartCam reeds heeft getest en bevestigd dat SmartCam aan Ubuntu 8.04 werkt. Ja, gebruikt SmartCam Video4Linux API. Zie http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video4Linux voor een lijst van compatibele toepassingen. Ik gebruik persoonlijk SmartCam met aMSN vrij vaak.
- Eerste dingen eerst, bezoek http://sourceforge.net/projects/smartcam/ en klik Download verbinding in de groene doos.
- Wij gaan de versie installeren Linux, zo klikken Download verbinding voor smartcam linux.
- De recentste versie Linux op het tijdstip van het schrijven is v2008.09.18.2. Download het zip archief en herinner waar u het bewaarde. Ik bewaarde binnen het ~/Download
- Navigeer aan de folder waar u het zip SmartCam dossier opsloeg.
[kmurray@radon ~] $ CD ~/Download
- Rits het archief open.
[kmurray@radon Download] $ rits smartcam_v_2008.09.18.2.zip open

[dossierlijst die wordt geknipt om plaats te besparen] - Nu compileren wij de SmartCam pitmodule. U zult moeten ervoor zorgen dat u geïnstalleerdk headers van de pitontwikkeling hebt. In Fedora is het zo eenvoudig zoals yum installeer pit -pit-devel

[kmurray@radon driver]$ sudo cp smartcam.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/extra
- Now update the module dependancies.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ sudo /sbin/depmod -a
- Load the module.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ sudo /sbin/modprobe smartcam
- Verify that it loaded.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ /sbin/lsmod | grep smartcam
smartcam 9880 0
videodev 29824 1 smartcam[kmurray@radon driver]$ ls -l /dev/video*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2008-11-15 13:59 /dev/video -> video0
crw-rw—- 1 root root 81, 0 2008-11-15 13:59 /dev/video0 - As you may have noticed, we have a minor problem here. /dev/video0 is only accessible to root. Unless you plan on only using your webcam as root, which is a very bad idea, you need to change this. Rather than change the permissions of /dev/video0 every time you reboot, you can change your udev rules to allow all users to access /dev/video0.
Using your favourite text editor, open /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules. I used vim.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ sudo vim /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules
Search for the video4linux stanza and change the line that reads:
KERNEL==”video0″, SYMLINK+=”video”
to this:
KERNEL==”video0″, SYMLINK+=”video”, MODE=”0666″
- Remove and reload the SmartCam kernel module.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ sudo /sbin/modprobe -r smartcam
[kmurray@radon driver]$ sudo /sbin/modprobe smartcam - Verify the permissions of /dev/video0.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ ls -l /dev/video*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2008-11-15 14:05 /dev/video -> video0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 81, 0 2008-11-15 14:05 /dev/video0Now /dev/video0 is available to all users.
- Now compile the SmartCam application.
[kmurray@radon driver]$ cd ../../src/app/
[kmurray@radon app]$ gcc `pkg-config –cflags –libs gtk+-2.0 gthread-2.0` -lbluetooth smartcam.c -o smartcam - Make the SmartCam application available to all users.
[kmurray@radon app]$ sudo cp smartcam /usr/local/bin/
- Make the SmartCam icons available to all users.
[kmurray@radon app]$ sudo mkdir /usr/share/pixmaps/smartcam/
[kmurray@radon app]$ sudo cp icons/*.png /usr/share/pixmaps/smartcam/ - I also chose to create a menu entry for SmartCam under Applications -> Sound & Video. Click System -> Preferences -> Look and Feel -> Main Menu.
- This is where you add or remove custom Applications Menu entries.
- In the left pane, click on Sound & Video.
- Click the New Item button on the right hand side and fill in the fields as follows:
- Click the Choose Icon button at the top left and type /usr/share/pixmaps/smartcam in the file field at the top, then click on logo.png and click OK.
- The window should now look like this:
- Click OK and close the Menu Editor. Then click Applications -> Sound & Video and you will see a menu entry for SmartCam.
- Now that the computer is set up, you need to install SmartCam on your N95. The SmartCam zip file you downloaded earlier also contains the SmartCam application for your phone. The version you want to install on your N95 is in the archive under release/phone_files/SmartCamS603rdEd.SIS. See my previous tutorials on how to install applications on your phone if you are unfamiliar with the process (How to install N95 apps via USB | How to install N95 apps via bluetooth) Once you have SmartCam installed on your phone, you will find it in your Applications folder.
- You must start SmartCam on your computer first. Click Applications -> Sound & Video -> SmartCam.
- Now start SmartCam on your phone.
- Select Options -> Start
- If you have previously connected to your computer via bluetooth you will already see it in the list. If not, simply select More Devices. Either way, choose to connect to your computer.

- Here’s what it looks like on my phone and on my computer.
Ik zal de volgende stappen op de bevellijn doen aangezien het het compileren van een pitmodule voor SmartCam impliceert.






At the time of writing, SmartCam only supports bluetooth connections. Hopefully in the future the developer will implement USB and/or Wifi as well. Either way, I still think SmartCam is a fantastic piece of software!






























how about windows??
yea, could you explain it for windows please.
I love you!!
it works great for me!!
Hi there,
I already use a webcame (Logitech on my 80.4 Ubuntu machine). Can you tell me if changing the settings as shown above:
KERNEL==”video0″, SYMLINK+=”video”
to this:
KERNEL==”video0″, SYMLINK+=”video”, MODE=”0666″
Will have a negative effect on the webcam connectivity I already have?
Many thanks.
Patrick
i think it’ll work patrick
i think its just a app for wireless access to the camera in the windows version,
aka no compiling stuff or permission changes,
most likley a install and run only feature
hi, i have a nokia 6120 classic, supposedly compatible, any idea how to installto the phone?
Hi Des,
Thanks for the information. Just had a look at the site your name links to.
I’ve read a bit about Joomla before. Seem like a killer application.
Regards,
Patrick
yeah, thanks
it is actually quite good, fully customizable, a seperate admin area.
soon as i have finished it i plan to use it as a online community with a flash gaming area.
Eeeek!
No sure what is going on here. Any one with a clue-stick for me?
Thanks.

sounds to me like that gtk.h is missing (near the top of ur post)
other than that im not too sure.
i have basic build skills, but not too great on resolving things like that lol sorry.
hope u get it working.
Hi, i try follow this tutorial but i’m stuck all ways on the begin i am on Ubuntu 8.04 kernel 2.6.24-23, new to this but i wanted learn, many thanks, azmo.
