What is Cheese?
Take pictures and videos with your webcam, apply special effects, and share the results with others. Cheese utilizes your computer's webcam to capture photos and videos, and incorporates GStreamer to add a variety of creative visual effects. It was initially developed as part of Google's 2007 Summer of Code program, led by Daniel G. Siegel and mentored by Raphal Slinckx. Since then, the project has continued to evolve, and the team welcomes contributions from those with innovative ideas and patches
