Windows 10 users can use the Camera app, which is already installed with the OS. This will

If you need to use the camera with other applications, you will need to enable the camera in
the Windows security settings.

type "camera" in the search bar.
•If you want to use the camera within other apps, select the Start button, select

After you open the Camera app, you may need to switch to the Full HD Camera. Here's how
to switch from one to another:
•Select Start> Camera> Change camera

•Select Photo or Video and take a picture or make a video.
•To see your new photo or video, or ones you've taken before, select

USING WITH WINDOWS

View camera on MacOS
MacOS users can use the Photo Booth app, which is already installed with the OS. This will
allow you to preview the camera images, capture still frames and video clips.
NOTE: While Photo Booth can be used to quickly preview the camera image, higher-quality
videos using the full camera resolution should be created in iMovie or QuickTime, since
Photo Booth does not use the full camera image.
As in Windows, you may need to allow apps installed on your computer to access the
camera in the MacOS security settings:
•Select the Finderbutton, click Applications, and start Photo Booth.
If you want to use the camera within other apps, you will need to enable access in the
MacOS Security & Privacy settings:
•Go to the Apple menu in the top left corner of the screen and select System
Preferences
•Go to the Security & Privacy preference panel.
•Select the Privacy tab then choose Camera from the left side list.
•Locate the app(s) you want to enable camera access for, and check the box
alongside that app name to enable camera access for that application.
To see an image from the camera in Photo Booth, you may need to select the camera from
the list of attached devices in the app.
•At the top of your screen, click Camera in the app menu, and select the Full HD
camera from the list of options.
When you can see an image from the camera:
•To capture images from the camera, click the red Camera icon.
•To switch to video mode, click the film strip icon in the bottom left corner of the
app. The red camera icon will change to a Video icon at which point you will be
able to record video.

camera resolution.
