+libunicap (video capture api)
+
+unicap provides a uniform interface to video capture devices. It allows
+applications to use any supported video capture device via a single API.
+It offers a high level of hardware abstraction while maintaining maximum
+performance. Zero copy capture of video buffers is possible for devices
+supporting it allowing fast video capture with low CPU usage even on
+low-speed architectures.
