I believe you have watched The Incredibles in ASCII format and wants more. Now, instead of watching other movies, why not watch yourself on your webcam in ASCII? That would be so COOL!
Haha… I look like a zoombie. Trust me, in person I look much better.
Anyway, to stream your webcam live in ASCII format, first make sure your webcam is hooked up on your computer and jump over to Krazydad ASCII Cam. The flash video will detect the presence of your webcam and request for your permission to access it. Click on “Allow”.
Within a few seconds you will see your webcam live… in ASCII format. Click on the “Snap” button to generate a text snapshot which you can then paste in your instant messaging, email and etc and amaze your friends. Cool, isn’t it? 🙂
Yes, it’s super cool! Now, if you thought that’s all you can do and play with your webcam, you are wrong. Not until you have played with the following two equally cool tools below:
Holly gracious, a dancing kaleidoscope! Turn on your iPod’s volume and dance in front of your webcam with the kaleidoscope!
After you are tired with the Amazing Kaleido Cam, try the Uncanny Alien Cam, and while you are there try out the “Zap!” feature which will instantly change the video into a variety of interesting tones.
The creator Jim Bumgardner, aka KrazyDad is really crazy but hey thanks for coming up with such entertaining tools which I can play with my webcam.
