Face Accessories: These are video accessories are two-dimensional
video effects that are applied on top of the live video stream. These
accessories include hats, a poker visor, a moustache/goatee, and more.
As the subject in the video moves, face-tracking software ensures that
the selected video accessory stays attached to the subject.
•
Fun Filters: Fun Filters apply photographic filters or manipulate the
images you capture with your Logitech QuickCam. Don’t just take
pictures using fun filters; use them with your favorite video messenger, or
make a movie to share. Neonize or polarize your appearance, make your
image seem drawn with chalk or colored pencils, go retro with the 50’s
Movie Reel, or make yourself appear ghostly.
