capture webcam images with java

[MuslimCoder]

Hello to all,

I am interested in learning how to capture and view images from webcam using java. So far I got to do some research and go to know that I had to download JMF (java media frame work), there were other open source packages that seemed easier, but I am not sure what to use.

I have checked and the sheer information was too much , so i decided to ask...

How do I get started?

Thanks
